Add managers in Apple Business Manager
If you have other people in your organization who will manage locations, devices, and content, you can add them in Apple Business Manager. This lets you spread out responsibility for managing specific tasks—for example, in a larger office, where departments may want to manage their own mobile device management (MDM) solution and employee list.
Managers can do the following, depending on the type of manager they are:
Set up devices: Enroll Apple devices in your MDM solution during device activation, and skip basic setup steps to get users up and running quickly.
Buy and distribute apps and books: Buy licenses for apps and books so they can be assigned (and in the case of apps, reassigned) by your MDM solution.
