# How to enroll a device in Android Enterprise as Work Profile on Company-Owned Device Google has introduced a new feature for managing Work Profile on Company-Owned Devices (WP-C) in Android Enterprise. WP-C consists of devices owned by the organization and provided to employees for work and personal use. Enrolling these devices creates a dedicated work profile that effectively separates work-related data from personal information. This enrollment allows you to maintain control over the devices and enhance the device security without compromising user privacy. With Hexnode, you can enroll your device in Android Enterprise as a Work Profile on a company-owned device. Notes:- Device requirements: 1. Samsung Knox devices: Android version 11.0 and above. 2. Standard Android devices: Android version 10.0 and above. Initially, [enroll your organization in Android Enterprise program](https://www.hexnode.com/mobile-device-management/help/how-to-enroll-organization-in-android-in-the-enterprise-using-hexnode-mdm/) and then follow the steps mentioned below to enroll your device as a Work Profile on Company-Owned Device (WP-C).

Change the default enrollment profile to the desired one, where the Enterprise management type was set as *Work Profile on a company-owned device* during its creation. This will update the QR code and other details according to the configuration of the selected enrollment profile. You can create a [new profile](https://www.hexnode.com/mobile-device-management/help/create-enrollment-profile-for-android-enterprise-devices/) by navigating to **Enroll > Platform-Specific > Android > Android Enterprise > Enrollment Profiles**. Note: The default enrollment profile should not be removed or deleted from the Hexnode UEM console until the device has completed its enrollment process; otherwise, the enrollment process will fail. Device enrollment steps ----------------------- If your device is already set up, perform a factory reset to initiate enrollment. Make sure to remove all associated accounts from the device before executing the factory reset. You can start the enrollment directly from the welcome screen for new devices. 1. Tap on the welcome screen 6 times.

A QR code reader will get installed on your device. Note:- Devices without a built-in QR code scanner will prompt users to connect to a network before scanning the QR code. In such cases, if the **Add Wi-Fi Network Configuration to QR Code** option is configured while setting up the enrollment profile, ensure the device is connected to the same network specified in the portal before scanning the QR code; otherwise, the scan will fail. - If the device is not in the range of the configured Wi-Fi network after scanning the QR Code, it will continue returning to the QR Code scanning page until the device can be connected to the configured network. 4. Using the QR code reader, scan the QR code for ‘Work Profile on Company-Owned Device (WP-C)’. You can locate this QR code within your Hexnode portal by navigating to **Admin > Android Enterprise > Organizations** to view the QR code.
