ServiceNow Certified Implementation Specialist – Hardware Asset Management — Question 109

What happens to the consumable's asset record after it has been consumed?

Answer options

• A. The record is marked inactive but remains in the system
• B. The record state is set to In use
• C. The record remains in the system for reporting purposes only
• D. The record is removed from the system

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because the record of the consumable stays in the system for future reporting, even after it has been consumed. Options A and D incorrectly suggest that the record would be inactive or removed entirely, while option B inaccurately states that the record's state changes to 'In use', which does not reflect the post-consumption status.
