    Enhancements in service contracts and entitlements workflow
    Track covered products directly through the contract records, facilitating changes and visibility of what is covered​.

Agents in Order Management can select the products to be covered by a contract when the order is captured for the contract offering.
    Create single contracts

    Create a single contract from a single order with multiple contract offerings. Add multiple contract offerings from an order to an existing contract.

    Create quotes for contract renewal or modification
    Create a quote or an order while renewing or modifying a service contract, service contract line, or an entitlement.
