Service Mapping
SECURITY Manager with Admin feature access to Kaseya Integrations
NAVIGATION > Contracts > Search > Contracts > open a contract > Menu > Service Mapping
The Service Mapping page only appears on a recurring service contract if
- you have Integrated Customer Billing enabled. Refer to Integrated Customer Billing.
- the contract organization is mapped to one or more KaseyaOne module organizations. Refer to Mapping Autotask organizations to module organizations.
- the period type for the recurring service contract is monthly.
Once these prerequisites are met, usage data for mapped KaseyaOne modules and organizations is transferred to Autotask for integrated customer billing. The services on a recurring service contract are the billing vehicles for the unit counts synced from these modules.
Theoretically, you could use any existing service and map it to one or more module billing types. However, this can lead to a lot of confusion down the line when a customer has questions about the invoice. We recommend the following best practices:
- Create a new service for each module (such as VulScan) and module billing type (such as Per Scanned Device or Per User)
- Name the new service using the Module Name - Module Billing Type (Vulscan - Per Scanned User). This simplifies mapping the billing type to the Autotask Service. This service name is what will appear on your customer invoices.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN Before you can map billing types to Autotask services, you must add the services to the contract. Refer to Adding services and service bundles.
On the Service Mapping page, you assign a service to each billing type of each KaseyaOne module that is enabled for Integrated Customer Billing and select how changes to the unit counts are billed.
- The Service Mapping page has a separate section for each KaseyaOne module mapped for the contract organization. All modules you enable on the Map Autotask Organizations to Module Organizations page appear here. Refer to Mapping Autotask organizations to module organizations.
- Each section features a table that lists all the ways the KaseyaOne module counts billable items.
Use the table to map the billing types and configure the settings:
Column | Description |
---|---|
[Module Name] Billing Type |
Each KaseyaOne module has a number of different ways to count billable items. MSPs may want to charge their customers per device, per user, per mailbox, per agent, etc. Each option for the specific module is transferred to Autotask and can separately be assigned to an Autotask billing service. This allows for a very granular billing setup. |
Autotask Service |
Click the dropdown control to select an Autotask Service for each billing type.
NOTE Service Bundles are excluded. |
Adjustment Frequency |
Autotask will receive daily updates of the number of billing items for each billing type. You can, however, set the effective billing date for each unit change. Select one of the following two options:
EXAMPLE On March 17, the unit count increases by 5. Starting on March 1, the customer will be charged for 5 additional units.
EXAMPLE On March 17, the unit count increases by 5. Starting on the 17th, the customer will be charged for 5 additional units. |
Ignore |
If you select Ignore, the row mapping will be cleared, and the billing type will not be included in the count of Unmapped Billing Types in the section title. Since no billable service will be associated with the billing type, you will not be billing for it in Autotask. |
