Defining a catalog item that results in the creation of a subscription

The Service Catalog manager can define whether a request for a Catalog Item results in the creation of a subscription linked to the goods and services delivered. When the Create Subscription check box is selected on the Catalog Item Definition record, a subscription record is created after the request is approved.

Note The Create Subscription check box is not available for Support Catalog Items.

The Service Catalog manager can flag a Catalog Item as available for individual and/or department subscription. When browsing the catalog to request a subscription, the Department Requester can select either individual or department based on what is selected in the Catalog Item definition record.

A collection of items within a bundle can also be made available for subscription. It is important to note that a bundle can only contain items that are defined as available for Individual subscription. If a bundle includes an item that is defined exclusively as Department, the user receives an error message when they attempt to select the bundle from the catalog listing.

A user is not be able to request items that they are already subscribed to or that are in a pending status.
