ABM with redemption codes - How to manage the codes?
Hello people. I need to publish some Custom Apps using redemption codes. I know how it works, I already have my ABM account and I already have the redemption codes. My question is: Is there a solution/product/api to control which codes have already been redeemed? I ask this, because there will be 8 apps and I have 20,000 employees. MDM and IN-House are not options. It is humanly impossible to control by email, spreadsheet or anything manual. Before developing anything to do this, I would like to know if there is a ready-made solution.

Can subscriptions be bought in bulk with Apple School Manager?
Hi, I have a free app with an optional paid subscription. Currently my app is set up under "pricing and availability - Distribution for Business and education" as Available on the App Store and for volume purchasing on Apple Business Manager and Apple School Manager A teacher recently told me that they can not buy a subscription with Apple school manager. Is this true? Does Apple School Manager only allow schools to buy paid (non-free) apps that have no subscription?

Problem adding new organization-id (distribution private app)
We have a business app for a closed group of users. The distribution method of our app is private. Adding new users with the organization ID no longer works! An error appears while saving "The Organization ID or Apple ID you entered could not be found. Please try again." However, the organization ID and also the organization name are correct and valid. As a test we removed an existing entry and tried to insert it again. The same error is displayed. Is the problem known and is there a solution?

Can you Re-Distribute a 3rd party App?
I wasn't sure how best to word the question but I can explain. We are developing an application for a customer. This app is to be used by their staff and shouldn't be available to the public. We plan on using Apple Business Manager to distribute the app to them, from which they can use their MDM tool to push the app out to the required devices. The bit I am unsure of is they also have a group of distributers (separate companies that sell their products) that require access to the app. As I said before, it cant be open to the general public and therefore rules out the App Store. The distributors are also separate businesses and so I doubt our customer can use their MDM to manage the distributer's devices. What I'd like to know is can our customer re-distribute our app from their ABM to their distributors? I understand we could most likely distribute the app out to the distributors as well but if at all possible I'd like to avoid us managing who they want to give the app to. Any thoughts would be appreciated or if you think I'm going about this all wrong to begin with, please say. This is new territory for me.

ABM redeemable codes update
In the company I work we have an internal communication app. The distribution is done through redeemable codes, due to the amount of equipment, the different cities and that not all the phones belong to the company, some are personal. Many users have already downloaded it. Recently, they asked us for an update. It has already been done, has been uploaded to AppStore Connect and has been approved since June 23. But the update is not available to users. That is, the app is not updated manually or automatically. They just can't see the new version. The ABM apps are supposed to act like those of the Appstore according to what we assume from their policies. Can you help us see what is happening? NOTE: When we uploaded the app, there were some agreements pending to be signed. The app was approved without their signature. We already noticed this detail and we signed them last Friday. Even so, the update is still not presented.

MDM Enrolled devices stop responding to push notifications !
We are experiencing issues with MDM Enrolled devices as the devices do not contact the MDM server randomly even on successful APNS notification. As documented by Apple, the device sends a Token update message when MDM Profile is installed in the device and whenever there is an OS update. We could see that device randomly loose connection with the MDM server over a period of time. We have verified that MDM sends notifications with the information received from the latest TokenUpdate from devices, however, few devices never seem to send token update messages to the MDM server nor respond to APNS wakeup. Currently, we are reinstalling MDM Profile in devices to trigger Token update again and to revive the device MDM contact. But as you can imagine for large enterprises this involves user intervention and becomes difficult to manage. It would be great if the Apple MDM team can clarify below What are the cases device sends TokenUpdate message to MDM What happens when the MDM server is not reachable during the first attempt of the Token update. As in many cases, the MDM server may not always be reachable to the device during OS update events etc. Is there any way to trigger Token update on iOS and macOS manually without reinstalling the MDM Profile again? It would be better designed if devices send Token updates often until it's acknowledged by MDM Server. Similar issues are reported in past: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/28918 https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/671878

App Clips in Custom Apps for Employees

But the update is not available to users. That is, the app is not updated manually or automatically. They just can't see the new version. The ABM apps are supposed to act like those of the Appstore according to what we assume from their policies. Can you help us see what is happening? NOTE: When we uploaded the app, there were some agreements pending to be signed. The app was approved without their signature. We already noticed this detail and we signed them last Friday. Even so, the update is still not presented.

MDM Enrolled devices stop responding to push notifications !
We are experiencing issues with MDM Enrolled devices as the devices do not contact the MDM server randomly even on successful APNS notification. As documented by Apple, the device sends a Token update message when MDM Profile is installed in the device and whenever there is an OS update. We could see that device randomly loose connection with the MDM server over a period of time. We have verified that MDM sends notifications with the information received from the latest TokenUpdate from devices, however, few devices never seem to send token update messages to the MDM server nor respond to APNS wakeup. Currently, we are reinstalling MDM Profile in devices to trigger Token update again and to revive the device MDM contact. But as you can imagine for large enterprises this involves user intervention and becomes difficult to manage. It would be great if the Apple MDM team can clarify below What are the cases device sends TokenUpdate message to MDM What happens when the MDM server is not reachable during the first attempt of the Token update. As in many cases, the MDM server may not always be reachable to the device during OS update events etc. Is there any way to trigger Token update on iOS and macOS manually without reinstalling the MDM Profile again? It would be better designed if devices send Token updates often until it's acknowledged by MDM Server. Similar issues are reported in past: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/28918 https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/671878
