Android Enterprise Setup with Any Email

Android Enterprise (AFW) provides a streamlined mechanism to enroll, manage, and secure your company-owned as well as employee-owned (BYOD) devices. For setting up Android Enterprise to manage Android devices, you'll need to register Scalefusion as your Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) provider with Google.

This document describes in detail how to register with Android Enterprise.

Before you begin

1. You will need an Email id. It could be:
   1. A non-corporate/personal Gmail id.
   2. A corporate email id (recommended).
   3. A Google Workspace email id (recommended).

Steps to Register

1. Log into the Scalefusion dashboard and navigate to Getting Started > Android Enterprise Setup.
   
2. In the section, Google Android Enterprise with Scalefusion Device Manager, click on Register with Any Email button.
   

(A) Set up Android Enterprise using a non-corporate/personal Gmail ID

1. Once you click on Register with Any Email, you will be taken to the following screen where you will have to enter your email id.
   
2. Enter your non-corporate/personal Gmail id and click on Next.
3. You will be shown the below screen where you will see the 3 options. If you do not have a work email or do not wish to purchase the company domain, please click on Sign up option under Sign up for Android Only.
   
   
4. You will be redirected to Managed Google Play page. Click on Getting Started.
   
5. Enter your organization/company name and click on Next.
   
6. On the next screen, fill in the DPO and EU representative details as applicable. If you do not have DPO details or if these are not applicable for your organization, select I have read and agree to Managed Google Play agreement and click on Confirm.
   
7. The following screen confirms that the registration is complete. Click on Complete Registration to navigate back to Scalefusion portal.
    
8. On the Scalefusion portal you will see the following screen. The Gmail account that you used for enrolling, along with Google-assigned Enterprise ID will be displayed here.
   

This completes the Android Enterprise Setup using non-corporate/personal Gmail. Now you are ready to start using Scalefusion to manage your corporate and employee-owned devices. Refer to our Company Owned Device Management guide or Employee-Owned Device Management guide for further steps.

Once you have completed the setup, please follow our guide to manage your Android Enterprise account to add additional owners and safeguard your binding from being deleted.

1. Once you click on Register with Any Email, you will be taken to the following screen where you will have to enter your corporate email id.
   
2. Enter your corporate email id and click on Next.
3. You will see a screen as below saying that an email has been sent to verify your corporate email id.
   
4. Please check your inbox (or your Spam folder) for the email.
5. Open the received email and click on Verify email address.

14. You will be redirected back to the Scalefusion dashboard.
    
15. On the Scalefusion dashboard the Android Enterprise set up will be complete. You will notice that the Enterprise email field will show as empty and hence, it is recommended to add the corporate email id here (it is recommended that you add the same email id that you would have used to do the set up) so as not to forget it.

This completes the Android Enterprise Setup using your Corporate Email ID. Now you are ready to start using Scalefusion to manage your corporate and employee-owned devices.

(i) Check your newly created Google Workspace account.

1. Log into https://admin.google.com/ with your corporate email id that you have used to complete Android Enterprise set up.
   
2. Click on Manage subscriptions to see the subscriptions added to this free account. These will be the same subscriptions that you would have selected during the set up. (Refer point 11 in the previous section above.)

(C) Set up Android Enterprise using a Google Workspace email id (recommended).

If your organization is already using a Google Workspace account, you can also use this email id to complete the Android Enterprise set up.

1. Once you click on Register with Any Email, you will be taken to the following screen where you will have to enter your Google Workspace email id.
   
2. In the next screen click on Allow.
   
3. You will be redirected to Scalefusion dashboard next.
4. On the Scalefusion dashboard the Android Enterprise set up will be complete. You will notice that the Enterprise email field will show as empty and hence, it is recommended to add the Google Workspace email id here (that you have used to do the set up) so as not to forget it.
   
5. In your Google Workspace Admin account navigate to Billing > Subscriptions, here you will be able to see the new subscriptions added for free, mainly, Android Enterprise and Chrome Browser Cloud Management.
   
6. In Third-party integrations under Devices, you will also see that Scalefusion (MobiLock Pro) has been automatically populated as the Android EMM service provider, along with the Enterprise ID.

This completes the Android Enterprise Setup using your Google Workspace ID. Now you are ready to start using Scalefusion to manage your corporate and employee-owned devices.
