Client & Product Association
Servers can be linked to:

This ensures physical infrastructure can be directly correlated to billing and service records.
Audit & Timestamping
All records are timestamped upon creation and update for auditing purposes.
No Automatic Provisioning
This module is an inventory and asset management tool only.
It does not automatically:
- Connect to servers
