ServiceNow Certified Implementation Specialist – Hardware Asset Management — Question 70

An asset is manually created from a purchase order before it has been shipped by the supplier. By default, the state of the asset is set to:

Answer options

• A. On order
• B. In use
• C. Awaiting delivery
• D. Pending transfer

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as the asset is considered to be 'On order' until it has been received from the supplier. Options B, C, and D do not accurately reflect the status of an asset that has not yet been delivered; 'In use' implies it has already been deployed, 'Awaiting delivery' is not the standard terminology used in this context, and 'Pending transfer' suggests a different phase of asset management.
