Attribute Based OfferConfidential 2020 VMware, Inc.25

Attribute-based Offer and Pricing ModelAbility to define product and pricing data in all backoffice systems (PDH, PriceFX, SAP, and CPQ)to support the E2E BO transactional processing. The main components: Attribute-based offer and pricing models for subscription offers Commit plans (e.g., VMC-AWS i3 host) Term subscriptions (e.g., WSO Standard) Professional services (PS)Confidential 2020 VMware, Inc.26

Attribute-based Offer Definition FrameworkAll existing Subscription Offerings can be defined via these optimized building blocksExamples:Product Family (PF) Group of similar products/services (usually owned by a single BU) that are usually bundledtogether, or might depend on each other to work properly (mapped to a single tile on CSP)Product (SAP SKU) A unique set of features, maps to a unique SKU in SAP Each product is linked to a unique Product model, but 1 Product model can be used by multipleproductsProduct ModelAllowed Product/Attr.value combinationsCross-Reference(Bill-Only) SKU WSO WaveFront WSO CR ADV TSWSO Advanced edition WSO AD BOX TSWSO Boxer Add-on a.k.a. “Product config template”, defines list of attributes with their LOV’s There can be multiple Product models within a single PF Term: 1YR, 3YRBill freq: P, M, AHosting type: SC, MHMetric: D, U Defines which of the Product model configurations (attribute value permutations) are allowed fora given Product 1YR - prepaid1YR - monthly3YR - prepaid3YR - annual A unique identifier assigned to each combination of Product and allowed attributes Allows partners not ready for attribute-based offer model to place orders for “pre-configured”SKU’sConfidential 2020 VMware, Inc.

Attribute-based Pricing Waterfall FrameworkList price for individual combinations of Product & attribute values would be determined by Pricing FactorsList Price (MSRP) Calculation Base price is defined as 1YR Prepaid, NA-USD price point ( additional service specific defaults) e.g., Device, Shared cl, Prod support for WSO e.g., Oregon DC for VMC-AWS Not all steps must apply to all products The sequence of the calculation must be the same for allservices Exchange rate must be the same for all servicesAdditional Std.

Introduction to Volume TieringOverview and BenefitsConfidential 2021 VMware, Inc.38

Volume Adjusted List Pricing StandardVolume pricing improves deal velocity by providing a programmatic incentiveSingle Unit MSRPVolume tiering pricing offers pricing benefits ascustomer consumes greater units of that service. (Buy more,save more)Structure: Volume (Qty) bands defined per service group Volume Adjusted List Prices defined for individual offers All list price tiers are published Stair-Step function All units get same price Mid-Term expansions benefit from tier change At Renewal, all units align to new tier price /unit For services with overage charges, each quantity band has aunique overage priceVolume Aggregation: Qty added up on a customer subscription (SID) Aggregation Level: Offer line item E.g. no aggregation across WSO Std and WSO AdvQuantityConfidential 2020 VMware, Inc.39

Payment MethodConfidential 2020 VMware, Inc.55

Different Payment Methods usedCredit CardPayment can be made Via Credit Card incase there is no limitation to pay in theparticular countryFundsPayment can be made using the fundsin the VMware Entitlement Accountassociated with VMware Cloud servicesand in the same currency that is used byOrganizationConfidential 2020 VMware, Inc.Pay By Invoice (PBI)Restricted PBIPayment Can be made using Pay byInvoice Method. This is an offlinemethod which requires offline paymentusing invoice approval processIf a sales order for a new service isassociated with a Pay by Invoice (PBI)account, it appears as a paymentmethod during service onboarding. Inthis case, the PBI payment method isrestricted and can be applied only tothe subscriptions included in the salesorder but cannot be added as a defaultpayment method to the organization56

PBI Types – Restricted/Un-Restricted If a sales order for a new service is associated with a Pay by Invoice (PBI) account, it appears as a payment methodduring service onboarding. In this case, the PBI payment method is restricted and can be applied only to thesubscriptions included in the sales order but cannot be added as a default payment method to the organization. If you want to use a PBI account as the default payment method to cover any purchases, resources and overagesaccrued by your organization, you must enable unrestricted PBI for payment authorization for all services in yourorganization. Enabling unrestricted PBI involves an offline approval process that you initiate by submitting a supportrequest. Restricted PBI – Service/Subscription level specific to the SID Un-Restricted PBI (ORG level PBI) – Default payment method for the entire CSP org for specific customer. Applies to all theServices/Subscriptions under that orgConfidential 2020 VMware, Inc.57

Next section below shows DefaultPayment Methods. PBI isrestricted to be used at org level,hence customer can’t choose thatdespite being available.
