How activated Revenue Management orders become assets through the Create or Update Asset from Order and Order Item actions in a record-triggered flow, and how the Managed Asset Viewer on Account and Contract pages shows asset history and starts amend, renew and cancel.

- Certification: Salesforce Revenue Management Consultant
- Exam section: Asset Management
- Study guide: https://www.certifyforce.com/study-guide/revenue-management-consultant

**Official exam objective:**

> Given a scenario, implement a solution using the appropriate out-of-the-box Asset Management functionality.

## What the exam expects

- Build the record-triggered flow that assetizes activated Revenue Management orders, including the application usage check.
- Choose between the order-level and order-item-level assetization actions.
- Plan the permissions for building and running assetization and for using the Managed Asset Viewer.
- Place the Managed Asset Viewer on Account and Contract pages and predict what each placement adds.
- Use the viewer to review state periods and actions, and to start amend, renew and cancel.

Key terms: **assetization** (creating or updating assets from order items); **Create or Update Asset from Order** (the invocable action that assetizes a whole order); **Managed Asset Viewer** (the Lightning component that lists Managed Assets and starts lifecycle actions); **application usage assignment** (the RevenueLifecycleManagement record that marks a Revenue Management order).
