Domain Capture forced change of existing apple ID

I have a user that was using the company domain as their personal apple id, when I performed a domain caputure in ABM, the user changed is email to a icloud.com email. Now we are trying to add the company apple id address to the iphone and it states it is not available. Is there anyway to get a company apple id on his phone and keep the data from the personal id?

No, you cannot combine a personal Apple Account and a Managed Apple ID into a single account, nor can you use the corporate email address for both simultaneously. 

When you performed a domain capture in Apple Business Manager (ABM), the user chose to keep their original account as a personal/unmanaged account by renaming its login email to an @icloud.com address. That personal account now safely holds all of their personal data, purchases, and history under the new @icloud.com name.
