Description
In Jamf Now you configure blueprints with the settings you want to enforce on managed devices. Some of these settings install via configuration profiles at the system/device level and apply to all users and other settings install at the user level.
When enrolling a Mac in Jamf Now, the local account used to enroll the Mac becomes the MDM-enabled user and is the only local account that receives User Level profiles deployed by Jamf Now.

Changing the MDM-enabled user on Devices Managed by Jamf Now
If the wrong local account on a managed Mac has the enrollment profile, we will need to unenroll and re-enroll the Mac using the desired local account.
Either manually remove the Jamf Now Enrollment profile from System Settings or send an unenroll command from Jamf Now.
Log in to the desired local account that needs to be MDM-enabled.
Re-enroll the Mac following the steps linked below depending on what enrollment type the computer is eligible for:
Open Enrollment: Enrolling a Mac using Open Enrollment
Auto-Enrollment: Re-Enrolling a Computer Using Automated Device Enrollment
