Manage pre-allocated assets, which are the assets that the vendor still owns, but has agreed to store in a customer stockroom for just-in-time procurement.
* **[Create pre-allocated assets](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/2G2J4TyLJt_1SvqTTehYLA#t_CreatingPreAllocatedAssets)**   
  Create a pre-allocated asset that physically exists, but isn't yet a financial liability.
* **[Allocate a pre-allocated asset](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/q7qtrnOflgMRMeaU027xvg)**   
  Assets can be allocated from pre-allocated asset records, which creates new asset records and reduces the Quantity in the original pre-allocated asset record.
* **[Split a pre-allocated asset](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/0PdjR~kdJT6hdIMFwjgldg)**   
  You can split a pre-allocated asset to create a group that can be moved to a different stockroom.
