Device and User Advanced User Categories Settings

User Categories is a legacy setting that defines a user or a group of users without reference to their location or role. In the current version of Workspace ONE UEM, this functionality is much better served by making use of child organization groups and user groups.

For Windows Rugged devices only, User Categories are the way to establish multi-user device staging. In such a case, you would create a User Category for each user that needs to share a single Windows Rugged device. You would then associate the Windows Rugged Launcher with the established User Categories, thereby effectively implementing multi-user device staging.

Select the Add button to create a user category and complete the following options.
