Benefits of Using Contract-price Charges 

Top  Previous  Next

Monitor your contracts easily and export the charge to QuickBooks.
By using Contract-price Charges, you can easily define, track, and bill for the price of a contract itself. To invoice the client, export the Contract-price Charge to QuickBooks, just like any other charge in Commit.
 
Billing for recurring services is simple.
When you renew a contract for the next billing period, Contract-price Charges are automatically transferred as well. You need only create a Contract-price Charge once for each contract, making invoicing for recurring services simple! For a more detailed description of this benefit, see the Benefits of Copying Contract-price Charges section.

 

Create standard service-plan contracts.
Because Contract-price Charges are so flexible and easily copied, you can build predefined service-contract agreements and use them for contracts with new customers. For example, you can offer different plans, such as a block of 10 hours of on-site support for $250 a month, or only 5 hours of remote support for $99 a month. When signing such an agreement with a customer, all you need to do is copy the contract, and all the details and Contract-price Charges linked to this contract can be copied to the new customer as well.

 

Flexibility in Billing for MSP Services
Users can create several Contract-price Charges for each contract. This allows great flexibility, particularly in monitoring MSP services, where devices might be added or removed on a regular basis.  For a more detailed description of this benefit, see the Benefits of Copying Contract-price Charges section.

 

Effectively Bill for Recurring Hosted Services
Using Contract-price Charges is a great way to define the hosted services you provide to your customer. Once a service is defined in the form of a Contract-price Charge, you can easily bill for it at the beginning of a new contract period.
