Section overview

A Rate Table is one of the three core elements of the entire JeraSoft Billing system. Its purpose is to contain determined rates (prices) for each code (destination) on the list. This section allows you to manage your rate tables. It is presented in the form of a table with the following fields:

FieldDescription
NameThe title of a respective rate table
ResellerThe Reseller, to whom this rate table belongs
Parent Rate Table

The rate table to inherit rates from. Codes with the same length in the current rate table will have the priority.
However, longer codes from the parent rate table will override the codes in this rate table

(warning)   Attention

  1. Please note that the currencies of a parent and current rate tables should be the same
  2. The working method with a Parent Rate Table could be applied only for origination.

For example, you can create a Child Rate Table for some destinations and add special rates. Then, specify a respective Parent Rate Table (that includes all standard rates) in the Child Rate Table settings. And assign this Child Rate Table to the Client.
