Hello @Pranita2 ,

Below are some of the SAM OOB flows.

ServiceNow provides several out-of-the-box flows for Software Asset Management (SAM), including:

1. **Software Discovery and Inventory**: Automatically discovers software assets across the IT infrastructure, tracks licenses, and maintains an accurate inventory.

2. **Software Compliance Management**: Monitors software license compliance, alerts on potential issues, and helps in maintaining compliance with software vendor agreements.

3. **Software Procurement**: Streamlines the procurement process by automating requests, approvals, and purchases of software licenses.

4. **Software Usage Tracking**: Captures software usage data to optimize license usage and identify opportunities for cost savings.

5. **Software Lifecycle Management**: Manages the entire lifecycle of software assets from procurement to retirement, ensuring efficient utilization and proper disposal.

6. **Software Vendor Management**: Centralizes vendor information, contracts, and negotiations to facilitate better vendor relationships and cost management.
