**TL;DR:** Configure default DEP profiles and Smart Enrollment assignments for different device types in Applivery using Apple Business for streamlined device enrollment.

If you link Apple Business with Applivery, you can choose the default DEP Profile or Smart Enrollment assignments by device type. For example, you will be able to assign your organization’s iPhone Devices to one DEP Profile and Smart Enrollment and iPad Devices or Mac computers to different ones.

## Applivery Default Assignments

Once in the [**Applivery Dashboard**](https://dashboard.applivery.io/), go to your **Settings** section 1 and locate **Apple Setup** 2 in the left-hand menu.

In the Default assignment section, click the Device type dropdown menus, and choose the default [**DEP Profile**](https://docs.applivery.com/en/device-management/apple/enrollment/dep/) or [**Smart Enrollment**](https://docs.applivery.com/en/device-management/apple/enrollment/smart-enrollment/) for that Device type.

If you choose none for a Device type, you’ll need to manually assign those Devices later.

## Complete the Setup with Apple Business

**Enter Customer Numbers and Reseller Numbers**

Before you can manage default device assignments, you need to enter your **Apple Customer Numbers** or the **Reseller Numbers** of your participating Apple Authorized Reseller or carrier.

Once you’ve signed in to Apple Business, click on **Devices** 1 and select **Inventory** from the left-hand menu. Then, select **Customer Numbers** and click the **Add** 3 button.

A modal will appear where you can choose to add an Apple Customer Number or a Reseller Number.

When you enter your Apple Customer Numbers, omit any leading zeros. If the Add button is missing or dimmed, the information may already be saved.

:::warning
The Apple Customer Number or Reseller Number that you entered will appear as pending. Please note that verification and approval of customer numbers may take up to five days.
