Accurate Service Price Calculation, Usage-Based Accounting
In many companies IT and Shared Services are still allocated to internal or external companies according to department sizes, CPU time or other distribution keys. The vouchers which are based on rigid cost blocks in the accounting system (usually the ERP system) do not allow any evaluation of the actual use or the real source of the costs. This means that it is only possible to properly account for tangible service products, while intangible services like cost-intensive human resources necessary for the provision of services are disregarded.
The standardized calculation and service accounting model of CATENIC enables you to assign all costs to an individually defined service catalog (TCS—Total Cost of Service).
CATENIC Anafee enables you to establish an efficient controlling of value creation on the basis of classic job order cost accounting in your service organization. The costs of providing your services are automatically calculated, taking into account all relevant direct expenses and overhead, and correct transfer prices are determined. On the basis of a TCS calculation method, you can determine the minimum price at which break even is achieved.
You account for your services according to the actual use in the business process. You will thus achieve transparency over the contribution as well as the actual costs of your services in all business processes in which your organization is involved.
Your customers profit from the cost and performance transparency since they receive an account based on the real-world business process which is strictly usage-based.
