Sophos CFM to Central Dashboard in multiclient scenario

Question

Hello everybody. 
 Since CFM is endind life in 31th December and we must migrate to Sophos Central Management &iquest;How are we going to be able to deploy poltics for every firewall without having to configure politics in each Central dashboard for each client?. 
 
 With CFM we where able to deply politics for all our clients in one step, but I dont know if is posible to do it with Central administration. 
 
 Thanks in advice.

First of all, every customer (from your perspective, a customer would be company A with Firewall 1-2-3, and Company B with firewall 4 etc.), needs a own Central Admin account. you can create those account via partner dashboard. It could be as a trial or it could be already existing Central account for this customer. 
 See this Thread for more information about the Customer creation part: https://community.sophos.com/xg-firewall/f/discussions/123799/appropriate-way-to-create-a-free-cental-account-without-trial-licenses/451589#451589 
 
 Second: you will have the option to generate a Central Management "Group". This Group stores the configuration of CM. So each group pushes the config to the XG Firewall. The group can be created on the central admin account or can be created on the partner dashboard. If created from partner dashboard, you can decide, which customer should get this group. On the customer central account, you simply add all firewalls to this group. 
 
 This process will take some initial time to move / migrate to CM but there will be more tools to go.
