Solution Overview
To exclude an object from being billed for monthly wholesale fees, you can adjust the billing settings for that object. Follow these steps:
- Locate the object in the BE administration portal that you want to exclude from billing.
- Change the field "Include in billing" to "Ignore" for the object.
This ensures that the object is excluded from the wholesale fee calculations and will not generate a row on the wholesale invoice.
Additional Notes:
- If a wholesale cost is assigned to a service type, any active service on an object will typically trigger a row on the wholesale invoice.
- Wholesale costs represent the fees charged by the Network Operator to the Service Provider for services utilized by end customers.
- For monthly fees, COS BE calculates the portion of the month a service was active, rounding usage to half or full days. For example:
- 7-12 hours active: Counted as half a day.
- More than 12 hours active: Counted as a full day.
- For daily fees, the total active days are calculated and rounded to whole days.
By setting an object to "Ignore" in the Include in billing field, the system will bypass this calculation for that specific object.
