The Normalization statuses are the indicators of how well the hardware and consumable models are standardized and normalized in the model catalog and the CMDB. The Normalization statuses are:

Manufacturer Normalized: The model has been normalized with the manufacturer name and the product name, but not the model number or the device type. For example, Dell Latitude.

Match Not Found: The model has not been normalized because no matching model was found in the Hardware Asset Management Content Service. For example, ABC XYZ.

Partially Normalized: The model has been normalized with the manufacturer name, the product name, and the model number, but not the device type. For example, Dell Latitude E7450.

Normalized: The model has been fully normalized with the manufacturer name, the product name, the model number, and the device type. For example, Dell Latitude E7450 (Laptop).

Manually Normalized: The model has been manually updated by the user with the normalization content, such as the manufacturer name, the product name, the model number, and the device type. For example, HP Pavilion 15 (Laptop).

New: The model has been created and has not yet run through the normalization process. For example, Lenovo ThinkPad T490.

Normalization is the process of restructuring data to maintain consistency, accuracy, and completeness across different sources and systems. Normalization helps to eliminate data duplication, conflicts, and errors, and to ensure that the data conforms to predefined standards and rules. Normalization is especially important for hardware asset management, as it enables users to have a clear and unified view of their hardware models, manufacturers, product names, device types, and other attributes. ServiceNow Hardware Asset Management provides a feature called Hardware Model Normalization, which allows users to normalize the details of their hardware and consumable models using predefined or custom rules, data sources, and schedules. Hardware Model Normalization can be accessed from the Hardware Asset Management application menu in the ServiceNow platform1. References: Hardware Asset Management - ServiceNow, Hardware Asset Management - Product Documentation: Tokyo - ServiceNow, Hardware Asset Management Implement - Customer Success - ServiceNow, Work with hardware normalization - ServiceNow - Now Support, Getting Started with ServiceNow Hardware Asset Management
