Invoice items

The provisioning fee allows you to use the tool with the contracted basic users.

The provisioning fee is invoiced at the beginning of each contract term. Depending on the contract term, this is either monthly or annually.

The invoice item "Additional licenses" is made up of the user licenses – that you have specified in the contract and the additional users.
Example calculation: According to the SaaS contract, you have 30 user licenses included in the 160€ monthly provisioning fee. Your teams have a total of 50 users in one month. In total this means:
1. 50 – 30 = 20 -> you still have to pay this number of users on top of the provisioning fee
2. 20 x 5,50€ = 110€ -> you will be charged for this month in addition to the provisioning fee.

The "Additional Licenses" of a month are always invoiced in the following month according to the actual usage.
