Create a TCO report in Hardware Asset Workspace
Create your own Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) report to compare the actual or projected TCO of multiple assets or compare the actual or projected asset TCO with the benchmark cost of the hardware model.

Role required: asset
手順
- Navigate to Workspaces > Hardware Asset Workspace > Asset analytics.
- In the Comparative reports section, select New.
-
On the form, fill in the fields.
表 : 1. TCO report Field Description Name Name of the TCO report. Type Type of the TCO report. - TCO comparison: Costs of multiple assets are compared.
- TCO vs benchmark: Costs of assets are compared with the benchmark cost.
Report table Table for Hardware Asset Management, Hardware (alm_hardware). Total cost type - Actual TCO: The TCO value of the selected asset.
- If both Actual TCO and Real time report check boxes are selected, the generated TCO report is real-time and offline based on the Real time report selection.
- If only Actual TCO is selected, the generated TCO report is offline.
- Projected TCO: This value is referenced from the following formulas and the generated report is only offline.
- When useful life of the asset is equal to or greater than asset life, the Projected TCO (at end of life) is calculated by using the following
formula:
, where Normalized TCO (TCO per month) isNormalized TCO * Useful life
.(Purchase cost / Useful life) + (Sum of operational cost / Asset life) - When useful life of the asset is lower than asset life, the Projected TCO (at end of life) is calculated by using the following
formula:
, where Normalized TCO (TCO per month) isNormalized TCO * Asset life
.(Purchase cost + Sum of operational cost) / Asset life
- When useful life of the asset is equal to or greater than asset life, the Projected TCO (at end of life) is calculated by using the following
formula:
Description A brief and meaningful description of the report. Show benchmark Option for indicating the benchmark cost in the report. This field appears only when Type is selected as TCO comparison.
Benchmark model Asset model to indicate the benchmark cost. When TCO comparison is selected in the Type field, this field appears only when the Show benchmark check box is selected.
Real time report Option for generating real-time data on the report. Workspace The workspace you’re working on. Default: HAM
- Select Save.
タスクの結果
The TCO report is generated and displayed in the Comparative reports section of the Total Cost of Ownership dashboard.
