When shall I expect to be billed for Maintenance Agreement that was recently signed?

As in accordance to the Maintenance Agreement signed, the effective date of billing shall always be the first day of the following calendar month if the service start date is after the first day of the calendar month.


Why do I receive more than one invoice within the year as maintenance charges for my IBM equipments?

This could be because of the different warranty expiry dates for your IBM equipments. If you have signed Maintenance Agreement for your IBM equipments, the maintenance charges will be billable upon the equipments’ warranty expiry.


How do I reconcile the contract value stated in my Maintenance Agreement and the invoiced amount?

IBM follows the calendar year method of billing, which is from January to December. If you have signed Maintenance Agreement with annual charges that have a service start date on any day of the year other than January 1, you will be invoiced with pro-rated charges based on the annual charges reflected in your Maintenance Agreement. The effective date of billing shall always be the first day of the following calendar month if the service start date is after the first day of the calendar month. Example: Maintenance Agreement start date is March 15, 2009, then billing will be pro-rated from April 1, 2009 to December 31, 2009.


Can I have all the maintenance invoices billed according to my company's fiscal year?

Yes, please contact CSOL team to request for your maintenance invoices to be billed according to your company's fiscal year. For example, you have five machines with warranty expiring on June 26, 2009 and another six machines with warranty expiring on July 15, 2009.

In calendar year billing, you would have received an invoice for the first five machines for the billing period from July 1 to December 31, 2009, and another invoice for the six machines for the billing period from August 1 to December 31, 2009.
