Disable auto-calculation for certain Custom Metrics

[G4P3]

Hello forum, I have some custom metrics that would work better if the auto-calculation for the total cost in the entitlement could be switched off or skipped. Is this possible?

To give you more information: these entitlements are usually sold as packages of a certain numbers of rights, and dividing total price / total rights spits out a final price that might be wrong due to decimals not adding up.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @G4P3,

We all know only too well what you are talking about, even with the packs for Microsoft you have to state the price per core at the end so that the total costs are correct.

The answer is unfortunately no, currently the price per right of use must be entered, which can then unfortunately lead to the rounding errors mentioned. 

One option would be to enter an average value for the license costs on the software model in the “Override License Costs” tab

Best, Dennis
