13 Billing Q&A Q: Is the Council’s “go live” date when they need to pay the full migration fee of $15K and their Adobe licensing fees? A: The Council is billed within a month after they go live but sometimes this is delayed. The Council is billed for the $15k one time migration fee, and a prorated amount (depending on when they go live in the fiscal year) for their Adobe licensing fees and annual hosting fee. Q: When does a Council get billed for their annual hosting cost? A: Council’s will get billed a prorated amount of the $8k (if under 100 pages) annual hosting fee depending upon when they go live during the fiscal year (October 1st -September 30th) Q: Once a council is live for a year, how/who is responsible for keeping track of their page count so that they are billed appropriately for their annual hosting fee, since this fee is based upon page count? A: At this time if you need to find out our total page count please contact your assigned Content Analyst. Confidential and Proprietary - Not for Public Distribution - Do Not Copy
