About migration request
  • Once you send an Android Enterprise migration request to a device, device users must initiate the migration within 90 days of receiving the request.
  • You cannot reset the 90-day timer after sending a migration request.
  • If you send a subsequent migration request to the same device before the 90 days have elapsed, the first migration request will still be in effect.
  • Devices become non-compliant if users do not initiate the migration to Android Enterprise (Profile Owner mode) within 90 days of receiving the request.
  • MaaS360 automatically enforces compliance policies by implementing pre-configured enforcement actions when devices are out of compliance. These enforcement actions can be found in the Security > Policies > Android Enterprise Settings > Device Management > Enforcement Actions > Action When Out of Compliance.
