# Enable or disable software assets

This topic describes how you can manage your software assets. Before enabling or disabling the Software Assets module, note the following points:

* Only administrators can enable or disable the module.
* Take caution when disabling the module. You can always enable it again, but all transaction allocation and tag assignments must be redone.

### Enable software assets

To enable the Software Assets module:

1. Sign in to your account.
2. From the main menu, navigate to **Cloud Tenant Setup**.
3. On the **Cloud Tenant Setup** page, select **Activate** in the **Actions** column. 

Once the module is activated, your account will be visible in the other Cloud modules (such as Budgets, Resources, Chargebacks, and Consumption) within 24 hours.

### Disable software assets 

To deactivate the module:

1. Navigate to the **Cloud Tenant Setup** page.
2. In the **Actions** column, select **Manage**.

Note that the **Remove duplicate transactions** option is enabled by default. It means that transactions relating to Azure or Office 365 won't be visible in the Resources, Budgets, and Consumption modules. If you disable the option, the changes take effect after 24 hours.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.platform.softwareone.com/modules-and-features/inventory/software-assets/enable-or-disable-software-assets.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
