Overdue Devices
Checked out devices that aren’t returned by a certain date can become overdue, and notify you or the user that a device hasn’t been returned yet.
Enabling Overdue Devices
To enable the Overdue Devices feature:
-
Navigate to Admin > Check Out and turn on the Overdue Devices setting.
-
In the Overdue Devices dialog, enter the number of Hours and Minutes since checkout until devices are marked overdue.
BEST PRACTICE:Imprivata recommends that you set the Lending Period to the longest organizational shift hours + 1 hour, and to turn on the Place Overdue Devices in Lost Mode setting.
Example:
For a 12-hour shift, set the device Lending Period to 13 hours.
This provides a 1-hour grace period for the user to return the device.
After the lending period has elapsed, Mobile Access Management sets the Device Checkout status to "Overdue". This status appears in the Device list.
To view all overdue devices, search for "Overdue".

When devices are returned, the Check In action updates the status to "Checked In".
Turn on Lost Mode for Overdue Devices
In addition to marking the devices as Overdue, enable Lost Mode and send email for overdue devices. Mobile Access Management supports Lost Mode with the following MDMs. Additional MDM systems may be supported in the future.
-
Omnissa Workspace ONE (formerly VMware Workspace ONE)
-
Jamf Pro
-
Microsoft Intune
-
Requires the permission DeviceManagementManagedDevices.PrivilegedOperations.All for the operation.
-
When Lost Mode is enabled:
-
Apps may not be used.
-
The home button doesn't function.
-
Devices display a black screen with customizable text.
-
Devices begin reporting their location to the MDM, even if Location Services is disabled.
-
Low power mode is enabled to keep reporting the location as long as possible.
-
Devices will remain in Lost Mode even when the devices are restarted.
Mobile Access Management turns off Lost Mode when a device is returned to any Launchpad. Alternatively, you may turn off Lost Mode using your MDM’s console, or by using the Disable Lost Mode Workflow action (OTA Workflow model).

Send Email for Overdue Devices
Mobile Access Management can send email when devices are overdue. Specify one or more email addresses to send overdue notices, separated by commas. Attributes may be used here.
-
Customize the Email subject and body using attributes.
-
Customize the time (number of hours) until devices are marked as overdue. When that interval has elapsed, Mobile Access Management sets the checkout status to "Overdue", allowing you to search for overdue devices in the Devices tab. When the devices are returned, their status will be updated to "Checked in".
-
If you prefer to be notified, and perhaps remind the user as well, you can specify one or more email addresses to send overdue notices. Attributes may be used for multiple addresses, separated by commas.
-
The feature includes a default email body, but this allows you to use attributes and other important info to your organization and environment.
-
Click Save to keep your changes, restarting the Launchpads in order for the change to take effect.
