Register device to Apple Business Manager
iOS 7.0+
If you have already registered the device with Apple Business Manager at the carrier or reseller from where you purchased it, this step is not necessary since the device is already a DEP device.
To register a DEP device using Apple Configurator 2 (version 2.5 or later), the following three operations are required.
