Naming Computers from a list of names during pre-stage enrollment

[davidmundt]

My apologies if this post is redundant but I'm looking for a method of naming Macs as they are enrolled from a list. For example ORG-MAC-001, ORG-MAC-002, etc using the names sequentially and not allowing them to be used again.

TIA

Using something like this is your best method.

Our School District has implemented our virtual learning carts using the method @boberito posted. Which is probably the best bet if you don't want to manually set the names, I have a script that your techs can enter in a Computer Name through a text box during initial setup. We utilize that script for our MacBook Air and MacBook Pro deployment.

There isn't a way to do this on the iPad side is there? That policy is brilliant but obviously can't run on mobile devices.
