Service Contract entitlement records

When a customer contacts a client company and requests service, it is important to determine whether the customer is entitled to additional service. If the contract provides for five service desk interactions, and the customer has five interactions completed, service may be denied.

Because the precise nature of language and rules varies from contract to contract, the process of determining which contract applies at a given time is complex and difficult to generalize. The entitlement determination process identifies the contract and the Service Level Agreement that applies to the current situation. HPE Service Manager uses entitlement records to verify that:

The referenced contract permits service at this time.
The contact has not exceeded the allocated number of service desk interactions.
The contact has not exceeded the contracted number of incidents.

Service Manager checks all of this information automatically from the incident, service desk interaction, or change request if the Service Contract application is enabled. The Service Contract entitlement information appears in each contract on the Details and Rules tabs.
