Hi Folks,
Do you have any idea to mange subscription-based licenses in ServiceNow? To have clear start date and end date when assign / revoke license asset to users.
- When assign license to user, the state/substate would set 'In use / Assigned', and set the 'Assigned to' with user's name;
- When revoke license from user, the state / substate would set 'In stock / Available', and the 'Assigned to' would be cleared.
Do we have some existed function / module to meet this requirement? Or any suggestion for the customization. Thank you

Have you checked SAM/HAM?
Please mark any helpful or correct solutions as such. That helps others find their solutions.

Thanks @Mark Manders for your suggestion. Our instance not activated Discovery, and not used SAM at the moment.

Hi @gao
I’m not 100% sure, but you can check the HAM/SAM process decks in Now Create — you might get some useful ideas from there.
If my response proves useful, please indicate its helpfulness by selecting " Accept as Solution" and " Helpful." This action benefits both the community and me.

Thanks @Dr Atul G- LNG . I checked the link and read the document carefully, meanwhile I also install SAM and HAM in PDI, but not find the direct solution we needed.
Our instance not activated Discovery, and not used SAM at the moment. Maybe have a customized table is an option for us, to trigger the usage data when Assign/Revoke software asset to users.
