Specify the number of days over
which the usage-based affinity threshold is measured.
■
Automatically Configure User Device Affinity From Usage Data
In the drop-
down list box, click Yes to enable the site to create user device affinities automatically.
If you select No, an administrator must approve all user device affinity assignments.
You manage device affinity requests in the Assets And Compliance workspace. Select the
Device Collections node and then click Manage Affinity Requests to approve or reject affinity
requests. When using automatic affinity assignment, the thresholds are monitored continu-
ously. If a user falls below the specified threshold, the affinity relationship will be removed.
User-defined affinity
You also can enable users to define their own primary devices through Application Catalog.
First, configure the Allow User To Define Their Primary Devices user setting either in Default
Client Settings or in a custom client setting as shown in Figure 2-3:

Users then must start Application Catalog from the device they want to set as a primary
device, click the My Devices link, and then select the I Regularly Use This Computer To Do My
Work check box.
Administrator-defined affinity
There are three ways for administrators to define user device affinity manually from the
Assets And Compliance workspace:
■
Select a device and then, on the ribbon, click Edit Primary Users.
■
Select a user and then, on the ribbon, click Edit Primary Devices.
