Servergraph/TSM (www.servergraph.com) offers a chargeback module.  The
good folks at servergraph would be happy to talk with you about their
pricing model.

Would those of you who have some kind of a chargeback system please let
me
know what you do?

We are about to implement an upgrade and believe that now is the time
to
start charging. Here are some of the things we have considered.

* 1 time set up fee
* annual fee per client (to cover Tivoli license)
* minimum monthly flat fee
* Storage - either actual daily or average over month
        - x G free (included in flat fee)
        - different or same rates for disk or tape pools
* Network / bandwidth charge
* If there are rate gradients, by client or department?

Comments and ideas appreciated.
