Purpose

The Charges & Plans Inventory is the master inventory of all charges and plans setup in the TBS system.

Charges & Plans are the main billing component to any Product. These items can be Recurring or Non-Recurring. In addition, these records can optionally point to a Voice/EFax rate plan or a Free Minute plan. This is how rate plans are tied to products.

  • Rate plans (all usage types)
  • Free minute plans (shared / individual)
  • CARE Provisioning Triggers
  • Network Resource / External API Integration

It is very important to note that each record can be customized in regards to taxing. Each record will need to have the taxing codes set accordingly. This is very important to keep in mind when adding these Charges & Plans to a customer's account.

The Tax Elements tool is also available to help preview the taxes that the detail will generate.
