Adding New Rate
To create a new rate for a target code, you need to press Add Rate and the following fields will appear:
Field | Description | |
---|---|---|
Code | Destination code. Please note, you can add a code to already chosen code deck while creating a new rate. | |
Code Name | Name of a code group (available if code deck is attached) | |
Rate | Price per unit of a serviсe. Here you can see changes (how current rate differs from previously effective on) by clicking up/down arrows | |
Effective Date | Rate start date (newest available rate for a particular destination) | |
Min | Minimal time of call that will be tariffed. For example, if total call time was 20 seconds and Min is 30, then client will pay for 30 seconds of call | |
Int | Tariffication interval. For instance, if call time is 26 seconds, Min is 25 and Int is 8, client will pay for 33 seconds | |
Extra Fields | Additional parameters are stored under gray downwards arrow icon. | |
| Specify a tag for respective rates. If it's not applicable, assign a (@) tag as default. | |
| This option allows selecting a rate type for a code: regular rate or an additive (extra) rate:
During billing, the system takes one regular rate and all additive (extra) rates that are appropriate for the call. Please note, a regular/additive rate table will be determined by accessible dynamic and static tags, used for the call. | |
| Time profile that will be used for a current rate, for example, business time, non-business time, weekends, etc. | |
| After specified date, target rate will not be used | |
| Setup fee (charged when event duration is longer than 0 seconds) | |
| Time interval that will not be tariffed (free time). For instance, if you specified 5 sec as a Grace Time , all calls with duration up to 5 seconds (including calls with session time of 5 seconds) will be free of charge | |
| Additional information about current rate |
After you finish filling in all fields, press ОК button.
Also, you can quick export the rates by pressing Export Filtered button or opening the Export tab.
Mass Rate Edit
It's possible to make a mass update of the rates by clicking on Mass Edit for the drop-down menu to appear. Then, you need to fill in the fields according to your needs. There are four general parameters that can be applied to a field.
- preserve - the default configuration that saves the rate not edited. Leave this parameter unchanged if required;
- set to - it allows to edit rates, for example, specify the same effective date for all rates at once, regardless of previous configurations;
- inc for - here you can indicate how the original value increased;
- dec for - here you can indicate how the original value decreased.
The list of mass edit fields is as follows:
