1 © 2013 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential 1  This presentation provides a general overview of using the Service Access Management Tool to manage Cisco service access.  Access to services can be managed by Bill to ID (Partner) and/or Contract Number (End Customer).  Access to Cisco Service Contract Center (CSCC) is not managed by this tool. CSCC information can be found here: http://www.cisco.com/web/partners/services/resources/cs cc/index.html  CSCC is used for service contract management, whereas the Service Access Management Tool is used for service access management (TAC/technical support and RMA/hardware replacement).

Cisco Confidential 2 The tool enables Partner/Customer Administrators to manage Cisco service access by: Bill to ID (Partners), Contract Number (End Customers), or both.  Allows Partner/Customer Administrators to proactively manage which individuals can obtain Cisco services* *Many Cisco service contracts require a serial number to obtain support. This tool is designed to ensure your engineers have the ability to open service requests using the contracts managed by your company.

Cisco Confidential 3 Using Contract Number  Enables Administrators to place Contract Numbers in Cisco.com profiles so those individuals can obtain Cisco services  When a new service Contract is purchased, it must be manually added to Cisco.com profiles  Primary users: companies who are obtaining support directly from Cisco and have less than 500 service Contracts Using Bill to ID Enables Administrator to identify which Bill to IDs in Cisco.com profiles can be utilized to obtain Cisco services If the Bill to ID is enabled for support access, the individual will be able to use all the Contract Numbers under that Bill to ID to obtain support When a new service Contract is purchased under the enabled Bill to ID in the individual’s profile, it is automatically available to obtain support Primary users: companies who are providing the support for their customers – end customers not contacting Cisco directly

Cisco Confidential 4 Add Bill to IDs to Cisco.com profiles for access to certain tools (order status, licensing, etc.) but individuals cannot obtain Cisco services Enable Bill to IDs for support access (individuals can obtain Cisco services) Remove support access for Bill to IDs (individuals cannot obtain Cisco services) Delete Bill to IDs from Cisco.com profiles Block Bill to IDs in a Cisco.com profile (a specific individual cannot have them added to his profile) Unblock Bill to IDs in a Cisco.com profile (an unblocked individual can now have the BIDs added to his Cisco.com profile) Lock Bill to IDs so that only an Administrator who manages the Bill to IDs can add them to a Cisco.com profile Unlock Bill to IDs so that Cisco can add them to Cisco.com profiles Remove Access Enable Access Add BID Delete BID Block BID Unblock BID Lock BID Unlock BID Administrators can perform the following actions:

6 © 2013 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential 6 Lock Locking prevents a Bill to ID from being added by Cisco to any Cisco.com profile (an Administrator can still add the Bill to ID to an individual) This action might occur if the Partner/Customer has a dedicated support team and only those people should be allowed to obtain Cisco services # Block  Blocking a Bill to ID from an individual’s Cisco.com profile prevents that Bill to ID from being re-added to that specific individual’s Cisco.com profile by an Administrator or Cisco  This action might occur if someone leaves the Administrator’s company or department and repeatedly calls in for contract association / support.

Using Bill to ID: Manage by Number If you are a SAMT Admin managing service access by BID, the Manage by Number screen is what you will see when you first log into the tool. This screen displays a list of all the BIDs that are in your Cisco.com profile and are able to manage using the Service Access Management Tool. If you cannot see a BID you want to manage in SAMT, send an email to ic- support@cisco.com with your Cisco.com ID, the BID(s). Ensure the word "Profile" is in the subject or the response to your request will be delayed. BIDs are used by other Cisco applications, so only delete or block a BID from an individual if you know it will not affect their access to other Cisco tools. Note: Block prevents a BID from being re-added to a specific individual. Locking a BID prevents Cisco from adding that BID to any individual. Only a Service Access Management Tool Administrator will be able to add a Locked BID to Cisco.com profiles.

A BID can be in an individual's Cisco.com profile and not be available to be used for support. BIDs are used by other Cisco applications, so only delete or block a BID from an individual if you know it will not affect their access to other Cisco tools. Note: Block prevents a BID from being re-added to a specific individual. Locking a BID prevents Cisco from adding that BID to any individual.
