Service Contracts Quantity

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Raphi 180

Hello

We want to migrate our service contracts excel table to NAV 2015.
There is a section called Service with the ability to create a service contract.

Our service contracts looks like this:
- Maintenance item --> already created in the item table
- Quantity of the item --> the items are i.e. software licenses
- Customer number
- Price per item

So when I want to create a service contract for the customer, I cannot enter a quantity or define how many licenses the customer is using in the service contract.

Is it possible to create a service contract with the quantity of the items? And is it possible to use a service item for all customers?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards
Raphi

    Good! I also failed to suggest the solution without customization, using only standard tools.

    Hi again

    I made it for myself with a little bit code manipulation. I added the quantity field and calculated it in the code with the unit price to get the total amount. It works now. Also I only get one period now (changed CALCDATE('<CM>') to CALCDATE('<CY>') somewhere in the code).

    Thanks anyways!

    Correct.

    I can see the service item name and below there are 12 lines with the monthly period.

    So as I understood you correctly you get the service invoice for full annual amount, but you have twelve lines for each month separately?

    No ideas?
    Would it be possible to change it anyhow?

    Hi

    In every service item it is 1Y and invoice period is Year.

    That is what is confusing me.


    I set the following dates / settings:

    - Starting Date: 01.01.2016
    - 4x Service Items (Service Period 1Y, Next Planned Service Date 01.01.2016, Starting Date 01.01.2016)
    - Payment Terms Code: 007 (Prepaid)
    - Service Period: 1Y, First Service Date: 01.01.2016
    - Invoice Period: Year
    - Next Invoice Date: 01.01.2017
    - Last Invoice Date: 01.01.2016
    - Prepaid, Combine Invoices, Contract Lines on Invoice enabled

    Thanks.

    Is this the same concept as 'seats' or 'users' in, oh, I don't know, Microsoft licenses?

    What value have you put to Service Period field of the service contract lines and what value selected in Invoice Period in the header?

    Hi again

    I tried it now with the total price, I think we are going with that (we can create 2 fields for quantity and unit price and then calculate the total price).

    But now I have a problem with the service invoice.

    It creates a service invoice line for every month (01.01.16 - 31.01.16, 01.02.16 - 29.02.16 etc.), but I just want to have the year itself on one line. How can I change that behavior?

    I have 4 service items in a prepaid service contract.

    Thanks.

    Best regards

    Thanks, I will discuss that with my colleagues.

    I think maybe we will do something for ourselves or going with the total amount.
