On Demand Migration Current - Self-Service Device Migration Quick Start Guide

On Demand Configurations

Preconfigure end-user portal access in On Demand

End users will need a valid M365 source account and be assigned a valid RBAC role to log into the self-service portal and manage their device cutover schedule. Instead of adding each individual user to On Demand, configure RBAC access for Entra groups using the steps below.

  1. In your source M365 tenant, create one or more groups that will contain the end users who will access the self-service portal.
  2. Log in to On Demand.
  3. Navigate to Tenants and add the source tenant, which will grant the Core consent. No additional tenant consents are required for self-service.
  4. Navigate to Settings > Access Control > Entra Groups.
    1. Select your tenant and enter the name of the group you created.
    2. Assign the role Self-Service Device Migration User and click Add Group.
    3. Add additional groups as needed.

NOTE: If the source devices are migrating from Active Directory, ensure the source UPN of the device’s user profile matches the UPN of the M365 account used to log into the portal.

Self-Service Configurations

Preconfigure settings and notifications

In On Demand, navigate to Migrate > Self Service > Device Migration to access the self-service admin portal to configure your settings and manage individual device cutovers..

Settings

Select the Settings tab to configure the scheduling parameters that will be available to end-users.

Support Email for User Portal -This email address will be displayed to end-users on their portal dashboard.

Daily Limit and Limit per Time Slot - Restrict how many migrations can be scheduled each day or timeslot to control the volume of potential helpdesk calls. Once a limit is reached, that day or time slot will not be available for additional end-users to select.

Allow Migrate Now - Choose whether end-users will have the option to migrate their device immediately from the self-service portal or whether they will be required to schedule the cutover.

Time Zone, Date Range, Time Range, Days - Configure which days, dates, and times will be available for end-users to select. The time zone setting helps you plan the time range in context of your support team’s availability.

 

Notifications

Select the Notifications tab to configure email notifications. A default template is provided for notifying end-users that their device is ready for scheduling. You can modify the default template as well as create new templates.

Sender Display Name - Configure a friendly Display Name that should be shown on notifications to end-users; the message itself will come from a no-reply Quest address.

Message Subject and Message Body - Customize the content and formatting as desired and upload an optional image to help end-users recognize the notification is from their company. The default message includes a table that lists all devices where ODMAD discovered a user profile tied to the user’s source account as well as a link to access the end-user portal.

NOTE: Create additional templates to customize the message content for different types of users or create separate pre- and post-migration email reminders.
