What it does
Says which deployment shape this install runs as: a single tenant, a managing tenant, or a managed tenant (hosted centrally or locally). The mode badge at the top, the managing-tenant pages, the managed-tenant pull and publish rows on the Job schedule, the MSP licence requirement and the hourly licence check all follow it. PIM Manager applies it at once, and the engine and jobs from their next run.
When set
When set to managing tenant: the managed-tenant registry and replication pages appear, the managed-tenant enrolment job runs (it updates the network rules of the replication store), and a Pro licence becomes mandatory. As a managed tenant, the pull from the managing tenant is listed and also needs a Pro licence.
When blank or default
When not set or set to single tenant: no MSP pages, no MSP jobs and no MSP licence requirement. The engine manages only this tenant.
Risk and how to reverse it
Choosing a managing or managed role without a Pro licence makes the hourly licence check trip a guard, and replication to managed tenants stops. Choosing the wrong role hides or shows replication pages and jobs. If the engine was deployed with a fixed scenario, it keeps that for its own sign-in until redeployed. Reversible: choose the previous scenario and save.
Requires
SuperAdmin to change it. Managing tenant and managed tenant need a Pro licence that covers the MSP role for this tenant. A managed tenant also needs the managing tenant's replication set up.
Recommended
Leave it at the single-tenant scenario the installer chose, unless you deploy PIM Manager as a managing or managed tenant.
