Configuring Allowances

When you configure an allowance, CMPClosed Converged Monetisation Platform. The MDS Global product that supports customer care and billing for digital service providers. auto-generates a unique code for the allowance. You need to provide a meaningful descriptive name, for example 100 Minutes Voice Weekly.

It's important to match the allowance with its equivalent configured in the OCS. From this, many of the allowance's attributes will default, such as:

  • If the allowance is unlimited or for a set amount.

  • If the allowance is recurring, and if so, its frequency, for example once a month.

  • Whether the allowance is prorateable.

You will also need to choose a billing type and whether the allowance can be shared.
