Use cases

Customer-purchased product or asset tracked for support purposes, including hardware, software, services, and subscriptions.

SUPPORTASSET represents a product or service that a customer has purchased and may raise support tickets against. Distinct from ITASSET which tracks internal IT equipment. The General panel uses a 3-column layout: left column for product identification (name, description, product type as Hardware/Software/Service/Subscription, status as Active/Inactive/Retired/Replaced with grid colours), middle column for detailed identification (serial or license number, manufacturer, model, version, quantity, unit cost), right column for customer and contract linkage via CLIENT and SUPPORTCONTRACT objectLookups plus date tracking (purchase date, warranty end with pastCheck, install date, end of life with pastCheck). The Tickets relatedlist uses stockRecord on the supportAsset field to show all SUPPORTTICKET records raised against this asset. Activity and Files panels provide standard notes timeline and document attachments.
