It is actually an Idiom.
It is usually used like this:
das Ende [+Gen.] einläuten
in English it means this:
to sound the death knell of sth.
the overall meaning would therefore be:
to cause something to fail or end
Example:
Das neue Shopping Center wird das Ende aller Kleinläden einläuten.
The new shopping centre will sound the death knell of all independant shops.
