Question:

How to Retrieve the .ipa file for CRM iRep when using a Mobile Device Management (MDM) solution?

Answer:

Customers want to use an MDM solution to deploy iRep rather than use the direct download link Online.

Use the following directions to pull the .ipa file for a customer MDM solution:

1. Log into the Org as an administrator and click the iRep Install link.
2. Another page loads.  It contains an install link: Download and Install Veeva CRM on iPad.
3. Right-click this link and copy the link address. The link appears similar to:  itms-services://?action=download-manifest&url=https://na1.vod309.com/ipad/171.13.0/[bundle-id]/iRep.plist
4. Remove everything before the  https:// and then change the .plist extension to .ipa
5. The ending link appears similar to: https://na1.vod309.com/ipad/171.13.0/[bundle-id]/iRep.ipa.

If the iRep Install link is not active on the left-hand side of the Salesforce.com (SFDC) homepage, use the steps below to configure the link:

1. Log into the Org as an administrator.
2. Navigate to Setup --> App Setup --> Customize --> Home --> Home Page Layout.
3. Click Edit next to the profile upon which the iRep install link should be active.
4. Place a checkmark on the box titled iRep.
5. Click Next.
6. Ensure iRep is placed on the Narrow (Left) column.
7. Click Save 
8. Clear the Veeva Cache.
