GEFE - Call Charge Recording On Terminating a Connection

The node id modification KNMATxxx indicates whether the destination number before the station number is shortened or completed with the help of the KNMAT entries.

The parameter CHRGPLS (call charge recording at the end of a connection) and the parameter TYPE (type of call charge recording) are CARRIER specific flags. The flag call charge recording at the end of a connection indicates whether a charge pulse is transmitted at the end of a connection. This flag is required by the charge registration subcomplex DATCOL. The flag type of charge recording indicates whether cost calculation place by means of call charge pulses or by means on the basis of connection time.

Procedure Overview

1. Branch DN:
   
   The parameter DNSHORT (destination number shortened by 2 digits) in the branch DN indicates whether the destination number is to be shortened by 2 digits. If the parameter DNSHORT is set to 'Y' (Yes), the destination number is shortened by the last 2 digits. If the parameter DNSHORT is set to 'N' (No), the destination number is completely entered. In this case the destination number is called party, connected party (new / through connected) and redirection party.
   The default value of the parameter DNSHORT is set to 'N' (No).
2. Branch ATTNDINC:
   
   The parameter ATTNDINC in the branch ATTNDINC indicates whether with an incoming connection the attendant / secretary can be made liable to pay his own costs or not.
   If the attendant is not liable to pay the costs, then the accumulated charges pays the transferring party.
   If the secretary is not liable to pay the costs, then the accumulated charges pays the transferring chief.
   The default value of the parameter ATTNDINC is set to 'N' (No).
   The feature CDR-E (switch in AMO-FEASU) overrules the switches ATTNDINC and ATTNDOUT. These values now are set to 'Y' (Yes).
   
   Note: With an internal connection there is no distinction between attendant / secretary and normal user. All users are directly treated therefore and no costs are transferred.


3. Branch ATTNDOUT:
   
   The parameter ATTNDOUT in the branch ATTNDOUT indicates whether with an outgoing connection the attendant / secretary can be made liable to pay his own costs or not.
   If the attendant is not liable to pay the costs, then the accumulated charges pays the transferring party.
   If the secretary is not liable to pay the costs, then the accumulated charges pays the transferring chief.
   The default value of the parameter ATTNDOUT is set to 'N' (No).
   
   Note: With an internal connection there is no distinction between attendant / secretary and normal user. All users are directly treated therefore and no costs are transferred.


4. Branch INCOLD:
   
   The parameter INCOLD in the branch INCOLD indicates the output of the incoming calling in the field of calling. This parameter is a reproduction of functionality from E V2.0.
   The default value of the parameter INCALT is set to 'N' (No).


5. Branch CONFAOCS:
   
   The parameter CONFAOCS (configuration of call charging over AOC_S (advice of charges - set-up) messages) indicates whether the cost calculation begins before or after through connected.
   If parameter THRCONN is set to CALLATT , the cost calculation begins before through connected (call charges are also calculated for call setup attempt).
   The branch CONFAOCS has two parameters THRCONN (through connected) and NTHRCONN (non through connected). Both branches consist of five (BASCOMM, CALLATT, CSETUP, OPOFSS and UUI or NBASCOMM, NCALLATT, NCSETUP, NOPOFSS and NUUI) elements. The parameters OPOFSS and UUI or NOPOFSS and NUUI are currently not used.
   The detailed description of parameters see Parameter Description.
   It must be set at least one attribute of the parameter THRCONN or NTHRCONN.


6. Branch KNMATINT:
   
   The branch KNMATINT is the branch for the node id modification for internal traffic. The parameter PARTY indicates the stations, which are to be modified (AMO-KNMAT).


7. Branch KNMATINC:
   
   The branch KNMATINC is the branch for the node id modification for incoming traffic. The parameter PARTY indicates the stations, which are to be modified (AMO-KNMAT).


8. Branch KNMATOUT:
   
   The branch KNMATOUT is the branch for the node id modification for outgoing traffic. The parameter PARTY indicates the stations, which are to be modified (AMO-KNMAT).


9. Branch PREINT:
   
   The branch PREINT is the branch for the node id modification for internal traffic. The parameter PARTY indicates the stations, which are to be modified.
   The value CALLEPTY of the parameter PARTY may be used only in connection with the branch PREINT.


10. Branch PREINC:
    
    The branch PREINC is the branch for the node id modification for incoming traffic. The parameter PARTY indicates the stations, which are to be modified.
    The value CALLEPTY of the parameter PARTY may be used only in connection with the branch PREINC.


11. Branch PREOUT:
    
    The branch PREOUT is the branch for the node id modification for outgoing traffic. The parameter PARTY indicates the stations, which are to be modified.
    The value CALLEPTY of the parameter PARTY may be used only in connection with the branch PREOUT.


12. Branch CAR:
    
    Changing of parameter CHRGPLS (call charge recording at the end of a connection) in the branch CAR. Setting of parameter CHRGPLS to 'Y' (Yes) means call charge information at the end of a connection or resetting of parameter CHRGPLS to 'N' (No) means no call charge information at the end of a connection. The parameter CHRGPLS must be created per CARRIER.
    Changing of parameter TYPE (type of call charge recording) in the branch CAR. This parameter indicates whether by a carrier charge information are transmitted (TYPE=PULSE) or are not transmitted (TYPE=TIME), or both is mixed (TYPE=MIX) used. This parameter TYPE is needed by the component charge calculation (CHCALC) of the charging, in order to calculate the charges by rate units, or on the basis of connection time.
    The parameters CARRIER (number of carrier of a connection, AMO-LDAT), TYPE (type of call charge recording) and CHRGPLS (call charge recording at the end of a connection) form a min-1-group.
    The parameter CARRIER must be entered and additional at least one of the flags TYPE and CHRGPLS.
    If the parameter CARRIER is not entered, the advisory message H01 is issued to the user.


13. Branch METHOD:
    
    The branch METHOD is only used for feature Rural (pulse metering & sending, SLMAR-station).
    There are three methods for charging:



1. Method 0: The received charge pulses from carrier are forwarded unchanged to the SLMAR-module.


2. Method 1 : Only the first charge pulse received from carrier is suppressed. All further pulses (units from CENTRAL OFFICE) are passed through.


3. Method 2: The first charge pulse is passed through. The second charge pulse received from carrier is suppressed. All further pulses are passed through.



The parameter CARRIER and at least one of the parameter group MNORM, MSCRSPC, MPUPHON, MMTEQ must be entered (min-1-group).

14. Branch REALUNIT:
    
    The branch REALUNIT (units from CENTRAL OFFICE) indicates, that the charge units received from carrier, to be output into the data record, although the call is charged after time. In this case the parameter TYPE is set to 'TIME'.


15. Branch SAMEPP:
    
    The parameter TICKET in the branch SAMEPP indicates whether with same paying party with the call transfer a ticket should be created or not.
    The default value of the parameter TICKET is set to 'Y' (Yes).
    
    Example:
    
    Station A calls station B. Then B makes a consultation call with C and releases the connection. Thus the call between A and B is transferred to a call between A and C.
    The prerequisite is, the paying party remains the same for both call sections.
    If the same paying party remains during a call, then the value of parameter TICKET is used:
    
    If the parameter TICKET is set to 'Y' (Yes), an extra ticket is created for the call between A and B.
    If the parameter TICKET is set to 'N' (No), no further ticket is created.


16. Branch CCALLDIR:
    
    The branch CCALLDIR allows a change of the call direction in the ticket sequenz.
    The default value of the parameter CCALLDIR is set to 'N' (No).


17. Branch RNGDT:
    
    The branch RNGDT displays the new ringing of through connected call in ticket filled in field RING_DUR. In this case the same value is filled in in field CONN_DUR.
    The default value of the parameter RNGDT is set to 'N' (No).
    
    Note: In ticket in field SUPLSERV displays 'RING_AF_CON'.


18. Branch QUEUEDUR:
    
    The branch QUEUEDUR permits the output of QUEUE_DUR without activation of feature CDRE.
    The default value of the parameter QUEUEDUR is set to 'N' (No).


19. Branch SRSUBS:
    
    The branch SRSUBS displays a subscriber with attribute restricted in field CHRGEE.
    The default value of the parameter SRSUBS is set to 'Y' (Yes).


20. Branch FILLLIST:
    
    The branch FILLLIST controles the list entries for INTNLIST. The parameter INTNLIST (Y/N) indicates, if a list entry has to be done if no valid line number is available.
    The default value of the parameter is set to 'N' (No).


21. Branch SLCALLED:
    
    The branch SLCALLED controles based on which party (called or destination party) the selection in the destination list has to be done. The parameter SLCALLED (Y/N) indicates, that for selection the called party has to be used.
    The default value of the parameter is set to 'N' (No).


22. Branch NMOD:
    
    The branch NMOD is used for station number modification of a entered node.
