Seeking to store IT contracts in the ast_contracts table

[darrendonaldson]

Hi folks, wonder can you help

I am seeking to store IT contracts in the ast_contracts table. Would anyone know if we would be covered under our current licenses to do this. We currently utilise standard ServiceNow licenses only for IRM, ITOM, ITSM and have a CMDB.

Thank you!

Hi @darrendonaldson 

Users can manage or create contracts in ast_contract table - require fulfiller licenses (like  contract_manager),

while end users can only view the records.

Hi, does this mean I then have to have contract manager? Is this normally part of standard licences, which we have only do you know? I have FF licences and use standard licences cross the solutions we have

Hi @darrendonaldson,

contract_manager role is needed to create edit a contract.

The contract_manager role is the primary out-of-the-box (OOTB) user role in ServiceNow Asset Management for handling the full lifecycle of contracts (e.g., leases, warranties, and service agreements)

Users with this role have full CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) access to the ast_contract table and related Contract Management application features:

• Create: Draft and submit new contracts. 

• Edit: Modify contract details (subject to state-based restrictions). 

• Delete: Remove contracts.

• View: Access all contracts and associated terms and conditions.
