1. Introduction

2. In order for the system to automatically create an asset for a product added to an account, you must select **Convert to Asset** on the product in the catalog.

Otherwise you can add assets manually, regardless of this setting on the product in the catalog.

5. Assets can be added automatically when the products are configured to do so, or they can be added manually to customer accounts. To add an asset, click the **New Asset** button.

6. The customer name will pre-populate based on the account you are on. You can change the customer if necessary.

By default, the asset will be created in *Active* status.

7. Click the **Import from Catalog** button to select the asset from your product catalog.

If the item is not in your product catalog, you can simply type in the asset information manually.
