Feature request: cost per seat

Open dimon00 opened this issue 7 years ago • 12 comments

I'd like to know if it would be possible to add a "cost per seat" option for the software license. In a saas oriented world it would be handy. In this way every time I modify the number of seat the total cost of my licensing would change as well. Adding a payment period to the cost would be helpful as well (monthly, hourly, yearly, etc.).

Thanks

Can it be reconsidered?

Thanks

Okay, it looks like this issue or feature request might still be important. We'll re-open it for now. Thank you for letting us know!

I am glad I am not the only one. With tradition licensing moving from perpetual licensing to subscription this feature would be amazing. Cost calculations could be made by entering the contract amount or per seat cost and only included during the subscription period. Reports for Monthly and Yearly costs based on per department and per user would really help especially for budgeting head count increases.

Would also like this. One of the few things keeping me away from the Excel spreadsheet. Especially with licensing becoming more fluid with subscriptions.

Was this ever implemented? Trying to decide whether to make individual entries for every user license or not.

Any chance this is being worked on? I would be great to enter the price per seat that then totals to the full license cost. That way the purchase cost will be accurate when you look at the licenses and an individuals checked out licenses.

I'd also love this to be a feature. As others have mentioned, the ability to total the figures on a per seat basis would be absolutely awesome. It would be super helpful to include monthly, yearly license payment to this, as well, with the ability to create reports on monthly and yearly spends.

I too am interested in this. Most SaaS based software is per seat base so not having this feature makes Snipe a no go for us.

Also interested in this. Additionally, rather than having to "Edit" the entire model, potentially a quick "add seats" button? Even more so with things like O365 or Jira or even Github where you may start with 10 but quickly go up in numbers.

Would also love that feature. Currently, I'm calculating it manually and put the total costs in the "purchase cost". Not very elegant and hard to handle. I would also love to have the flexibility of monthly/yearly costs.
