Tracking costs Note

The Financials tab, from which you perform cost tracking, is available in the Classic view of the Problem Investigation form. The Financials tab on the Classic view of the Problem Investigation form shows the financial effect of the problem on a company or site. Knowing how much an unresolved problem costs helps you determine whether and when to perform a formal problem investigation. This tab displays Investigation Costs. If Asset Management is installed, this tab also displays Cost of CI Unavailability. You can record the cost involved in working on a problem investigation. If the problem investigation is related to an incident with CI unavailability, you can update the costs of CI unavailability.

Note The CI unavailability feature is available when BMC Remedy Asset Management is installed and is used to track both scheduled and unscheduled outages against CIs.
