# Application Configurations for configuring Outlook

Application Configurations, also known as Managed Configurations, provide enterprises with a convenient way to remotely configure apps directly from the Scalefusion Dashboard. These configurations act like login credentials or setup parameters that are passed to the app, allowing it to be automatically set up with little to no user input.

With this, you can also restrict Outlook on Android and iOS devices to use only corporate email accounts. This ensures that users are automatically signed out of any personal accounts already logged in and are restricted from adding non-corporate accounts. Only a single, approved corporate account will be allowed.

#### Objective:

1. Enforce login with only a corporate email address in the Outlook app on Android and iOS devices.
2. Prevent users from adding additional or secondary accounts.

This document describes the App Configurations that make it easier to configure **Outlook** on Scalefusion-managed **Android and iOS** devices, which are **employee-owned (BYOD)** and the devices that have been enrolled using **User Authenticated Enrollment** for [Android](/docs/user-authenticated-enrollment-of-company-owned-android-devices) and [iOS](/docs/user-authenticated-enrollment-of-company-owned-ios-devices).

## Before you begin

1. For Android devices, search for and install the **Outlook** application from **Play for Work** apps as described [here](/docs/remotely-install-android-apps-from-google-play-store).
2. For iOS devices, search for and install **Outlook** from **Apple App** Store as described [here](/docs/install-itunes-applications).
