Annual licensing fee for Viewpoint
Viewpoint is PwC’s information service for all of our thought leadership and technical materials. Viewpoint’s licensing model is user-based, meaning all users on a license require an individual license.
Current Viewpoint pricing is as follows:
Incremental price for content license per user
|
Global/International Content 1(global IFRS content only, no UK)
| | | UK Content 2 (UK GAAP & IFRS for the UK content) | UK GAAP Only | Japan Content 3 |
Subject to change. Pricing based on current exchange rates where applicable.
Registered users can access all US GAAP and US GASB related content on Viewpoint, including content such as the FASB Codification, by logging into their Viewpoint account. If you do not have a Viewpoint account, you can request a complementary account by clicking “Register” in the top right of the main US site.
Total license fees will be impacted by the number and type of licenses so you should carefully assess your license needs. Remember that you can still access all PwC content without paying for a license.
1 Includes IFRS and International Auditing Standards
2 Content incorporates relevant IFRS materials. Subscribers to this content must also license the Global/International content (please note that we will no longer be offering Australia and Netherlands content on Viewpoint).
3 Japan content is in the Japanese language
Disclosure Checklist users
If you hold a license to Disclosure Checklist, you will still be able to access the links to technical content in Viewpoint. To access most technical content, a Viewpoint license is not required. However, if you are trying to access non-US related content, a Viewpoint license is required. Disclosure Checklist users that do not have a license to Viewpoint will still be able to use Disclosure Checklist.
How do I activate my Viewpoint License?
New Viewpoint users will receive a welcome email once their license has been activated. The email will include the license details and instructions on how to begin using your license.
