Section overview

This section describes the list of currently available routing policies for JeraSoft Billing. Routing policy is a set of regulations and principles (appeal) that determine the way all available terminators are prioritized during dynamic routing. Each policy has its unique principles of terminators prioritizing and allows a user a wide variety of possibilities to configure the system in the best suitable way. Below you will find a description of 6 standard DR Policies:

Factors

Specify the factors for the system to consider during building the DR table:

Rate - vendor's rate for the destination, vendors with a lower rate will get higher position in routing;
ASR - vendor's ASR, analyzed by Summary Report data for the duration given in the System Confirmation;
ACD - vendor's ACD, analyzed by Summary Report data for the duration given in the System Confirmation;
PDD - vendor's PDD, analyzed by Summary Report data for the duration given in the System Confirmation;
SCD - vendor's SCD, analyzed by Summary Report data for the duration given in the System Confirmation;
Vendor Debt - considers the amount a vendor owes you; vendors, that owe you the most, are moved to a higher position in routing;
Payment Due - considers the next payment date to a vendor (date of next invoice + due days); vendors with longer periods till due date get higher positions.

You can select multiple factors.

Note that it is possible to create a Routing Policy without any factors. As a result, all Appeal values will be the same for this Policy. During the routing process all routes with all other similar parameters will be randomly reordered.
