Create an Energy Saver configuration in Apple Business
You can enforce specific power options for Mac computers, such as the amount of time before the screen dims, whether to wake the Mac when it detects network access, and set a schedule for the Mac to start up, sleep, or shut down.
When you configure additional options for Mac laptop computers, those options are ignored on Mac desktop computers. See Save energy on your Mac in the Mac User Guide.
