Asset Ownership vs Usage vs Support

Looking for some guidance on how this information should be tracked on an asset (and if folks want to speak to the CI side of it too I won't object 😀).

Server was purchased by Company A from Vendor Z. It's managed by Company A's support group "Group X." The Server is being used by Company B (maybe the actual server or it could be Company B is accessing an application that is running on the server; would like to understand both scenarios). Where does ServiceNow intend each of these data elements to be populated?

Possible locations seem to include:

1. Asset.Company

2. Asset.Owned_by (except this is a person, not a group, so would it be a custom field for owner_group or stored on a related record?)

3. Asset.Vendor

4. CI has a 'Subscribed by' related list

5. Asset.Support_group

I'm not sure how I missed that field but I do see it on my instance as well. It's on the 'Disposal' tab though so I believe this is intended to be used when you donate an asset.
