Create New Contract/License

Contracts/Licenses can be entered into the database so you can associate them with specific assets.  For example, you may have 15 licenses for Microsoft Windows and each license is assigned to a different computer.  You can track which assets those licenses are tied to by associating the license with the assets on the New/Edit Asset screens.  
 

1.To create a new contract/license, from the Main screen, click New > Contract/License.

 

The New Contract screen can also be accessed from the Contract List by clicking the New Record button on the toolbar. For more information on using the List screens, see the Working with Lists topic.

2.Complete the requested information at the top of the screen.

 

When you enter a Vendor, the icon next to the field is enabled as shown below:

 

NewContractFormSelectVendor

 

Click on this icon to open the Edit Vendor screen so you can view this vendor's information.

 

You can optionally enter a hyperlink for this vendor.  This can be a hyperlink to the vendor's website or to a document stored on your network. Cost is also an optional field.  You can enter cost here, but keep in mind it is not tracked in Rosistem Assets.
 

3.You can associate assets with this contract/license by clicking the Associate button.  The Asset List appears.  Highlight the desired listing, then click the Select button on the Asset List.  The selected asset appears in the Associated Assets grid as shown below:

 

NewContractFormSelectVendorAssociatedAssets

 

You can remove an asset by highlighting it in the grid and clicking the Remove button.

 

If you associate an asset to a contract/license from this screen, this contract will display on the asset's Edit Asset screen > Contracts tab.
 

4.Click OK save your changes.
