A customer owned an asset for 2 years, from January 1, 2024, through December 31,...

Override Renewal Termis designed for an expired asset whose new renewal period does not begin immediately after the previous lifecycle end date. The customer ' s original term ended December 31, 2025, but the requested renewal begins February 1, 2026, creating a one-month gap.

Using Override Renewal Term allows the rep to enter the new renewal start date while preserving the relationship to the existing lifecycle-managed asset and its history. Revenue Management can then construct the renewal transaction around that explicitly defined term.

Option A manually adds the same asset as a new transaction line rather than invoking the supported expired-asset renewal behavior. Option B incorrectly treats the customer ' s continued relationship as a new initial sale, breaking renewal continuity and obscuring the historical lifecycle.

The central principle is that expiration does not necessarily require a new-sale transaction. When the business intent remains renewal but the next period starts later, the renewal term should be overridden to reflect the desired dates.
