Managed Devices (MDs) are computers for workstations where only a small selection of software will be used.
Changes to the configuration are not planned here, which is why these MDs are mainly intended for administration.
No individual, independent installation of software is possible on these computers, the users have no administrative rights.
Updates and data encryption are handled by the ZID if the device is restarted regularly.
However, please note: locally stored files are not backed up automatically!
If you opt for an MD, you will receive a device that is already equipped with the requested software.
The following steps usually need to be completed during initial setup:
Step5 - Microsoft Office 365
First, you have to order the Microsoft Office 365 user account via the university's software self-service portal https://sam.univie.ac.at/wm - login with u\u:account (e.g. "u\hmustermann18") and your u:account password.
After the login to the self-service portal, click in the left-hand-sided navigation tree on Catalog > Accounts (EN) or Katalog > Nutzer*innen-Konten (DE) and choose the Microsoft 365 Account (A3).
For a more detailed step-by-step guide on the ordering process, please follow the instructions of the ZID on the following page Microsoft365 Ordering Process.
After the order has been placed, the approval of the IT representative and the cost centre manager is required. You will be notified by e-mail as soon as the approvals have been granted.
Consequently, your Microsoft account will be created and provided with the corresponding personal licence. Once the Microsoft account and licence are provisioned, you will receive 2 e-mails with the subject Order provisioned and Microsoft account provisioned.
As a next step you need to activate the Microsoft 365 account and a second factor for authentication - more info on that matter can be found here Activating Microsoft 365.
Now you are able to download the Microsoft Office 365 Suite right from the Microsoft 365 Portal and install it on the device.
