CIS-HAM Exam Dumps : Certified Implementation Specialist - Hardware Asset Management

To find the answer, I searched for “ServiceNow Hardware Asset Management IT asset vs. CI” using my search_web tool.

I found several relevant web pages that explain the difference between an IT asset and a CI in ServiceNow.

I learned that an IT asset is any financially valuable component that can contribute to the delivery of an IT product or service, while a CI is any component that needs to be managed in order to deliver an IT service12.

I also learned that an IT asset is often a CI, but not all CIs are IT assets12.

Therefore, a component is considered an IT asset vs. a CI when you want to do the following:

Manage its procurement, maintenance, or retirement

Track its monetary value or costs

Manage its associated license, warranty, or lease contracts

These are the aspects that relate to the financial value and lifecycle of the component, which are relevant for IT asset management34.

The other options, such as tracking its operational information and knowing its relationships to other assets in the CMDB, are more relevant for CI management, which is part of configuration management35.

The ServiceNow Agent mobile app allows the user to scan and create assets in ServiceNow in various scenarios123.

One scenario is to create a single asset via barcode scan. The user can scan the barcode or QR code of an asset and fill in the required fields to create an asset record in ServiceNow1.

Another scenario is to receive one or multiple assets from a purchase order. The user can scan the barcode or QR code of a purchase order and view the list of assets to be received. The user can then scan the assets and confirm the receipt in ServiceNow1.

The other scenarios, such as creating multiple assets listed on a contract PDF scan or creating a single asset via Name search, are not supported by the ServiceNow Agent mobile app123. References:
