Performing advanced management tasks outside BlackBerry Management Studio

In BlackBerry Management Studio, you can click Services on the menu bar to access a drop-down list to choose the BlackBerry Device Service, BlackBerry Enterprise Server, or Universal Device Service to perform more advanced tasks.

To perform specific administrative actions, you must be assigned an administrative role. An administrative role consists of a series of permissions that specifies the information that you can view and the tasks that you can perform. For more information about the administrative role that you are assigned to, contact your system administrator.

The BlackBerry Device Service helps you to manage the work file system on BlackBerry 10 devices or BlackBerry PlayBook tablets that run BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.0 and later. The BlackBerry Device Service allows you to control the connections that devices make to your organization's environment, install and manage your organization’s applications, and protect your organization’s data and applications on devices.

The Universal Device Service helps you to manage devices that run iOS or Android OS in your organization's environment.

The BlackBerry Enterprise Server helps you to manage the work file system on BlackBerry 7.1 and earlier devices. You can use the BlackBerry Enterprise Server to assign groups, administrative roles, and software configurations to user accounts, apply IT policies to user accounts, and manage servers and components in a BlackBerry Enterprise Server domain.
