    • The Software Asset Management Guided Experiences application provides step-by-step guidance for completing tasks in your daily software management activities.

    Playbook overview

    A playbook takes a workflow and breaks it into multiple lanes. Each lane includes:
    • A list of tasks that you must perform.
    • Status indicators that display the current state of each task.
    • Check boxes that indicate where you are in the workflow.

    As you mark a task complete in a lane, you move to the next task. You can save a task at any time and return to the playbook later. After you complete all the tasks in a lane, you can move to the next lane. As you keep completing tasks and lanes, the status keeps getting reflected in the side panel. An activity log on the playbook shows all the data that you’ve entered for each task. After you complete all the tasks, you’re asked to review the details you entered in all the lanes. You can choose to edit any field or select Finish to complete the process of creating the entitlement.

    A playbook is divided into three parts:
    • task lanes
    • a work area
    • an activity log
