Fence your hardware asset management lifecycle processes to run strictly on eligible IT hardware assets. By replacing scattered validation checks with a centralized mechanism, your organization ensures consistency across all workflows and APIs. This guardrail prevents accidental bulk modifications to non-hardware domains and blocks untagged assets from bypassing metering.
Where: This change applies to Lightning Experience in Enterprise, Performance, and Unlimited editions with IT Service.
Who: To manage and run these lifecycle operations, you need a Hardware Asset Management permission set, such as Asset Manager, Inventory Manager, or IT Fulfiller.
Why: Centralized validation integrates directly into standard refresh, reclaim, and disposal flows, automatically skipping and flagging ineligible records during bulk operations.
