Does Soti have the ability to restrict profiles and packages from being applied over cellular? We have a bunch of Zebra TC-56's and we want them to be able to contact the server when they are out on the road via cellular so we can remote control and locate them, but we do not want them applying packages because it chews up cellular data. Instead we would like the devices to wait until they are back at our buildings on wi-fi to perform package installations and updates. Is this possible via built-in Soti functions or even some scriptable work around?

According to specification found on the web, Zebra TC-56 should be running Android 7+.   So, I assume you are running Android Plus or Android Enterprise.  Network Restriction is included in the "Options" tab, in which you can restrictthe associated  profile/package deployment  to be done using Wifi traffic only.

Please note that this network restriction is not available for Generic Android device agent.

Oh my gosh. Thank you! I've never gotten off of the "Devices/Device Groups" tab. Wow, do I feel dumb. Thank you for pointing out the "Options" tab  for the assignment. There are a lot of powerful options in there!
