Reseller in JeraSoft Billing, in the majority of cases, is a company that who has a certain number amount of clients and governs their activities in the system. Like any company, it can have a range of managers, each responsible for a certain group of company clients. The Manager has limited functionality: doesn't have his own balance, therefore, he cannot perform any transactions; neither origination nor termination rate table cannot be assigned to him, etc. The Resellers section is designed to provide a user with a possibility to track and manage their company information and activity, build a hierarchy of company affiliates, or assign its managers. The section is presented in the form of a table with the following columns:
