MECM - Collection and Deployment Guidance for users outside of ITS

Collections

TC Collections will reside in Assets and Compliance > Device Collections > Name Provided by ITS >

Example: Devices managed by the Library would reside in Assets and Compliance > Device Collections > Library >

Incremental updates on collections are only allowed if approved by ITS MECM Managers. If unapproved collections are found with the incremental update selected, the setting will be undone.

In order to avoid a cluttered environment, ITS wants to keep the folder structure as flat as possible.

All collections must have a limiting collection of either:

Device Collection Name

Purpose

Device Collection Name

Global - Desktop OS MECM Clients
