# Apple Profile Filesets

Profiles utilise Apple’s defined payloads, allowing management or configuration of User and System.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>FileWave presets User or System correctly where only one option is available for included payloads.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>Some payloads, though, could be either User or System as shown in the Fileset Settings:

<p class="callout info">Apple allows the management of any amount of directory users for a single device.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>However, only one local user will be managed.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>This user will be the first user after enrolment of the device.</p>

Profiles are stored directly within the Fileset and delivered to devices after MDM communication has been established.
