Create and manage contracts for enterprise assets

Create contracts for your enterprise assets and manage them by taking actions on contracts that are nearing expiration or already expired.

You can take action on certain enterprise asset contracts that are either nearing their expiration or have already expired.

If a maintenance or warranty contract is expiring or has already expired, you can renew the contract by using the contract renewal workflow. For more information on renewing expiring maintenance and warranty contracts, see Contract renewal workflow.

If a lease contract is expiring or has already expired, you can choose to:

• return the associated enterprise assets to the asset vendor,
• buy out the associated enterprise assets so that you can permanently add them to your asset inventory,
• or extend the contract.

For more information on managing expiring lease contracts, see Managing expiring contracts for leased enterprise assets.
