Why Use Monitoring Reports?: The Telco Revenue Assurance Handbook
Why Use Monitoring Reports?: The Telco Revenue Assurance Handbook
In our case, inputs will never equal outputs. For example, the input
and output reports we look at may show that a particular bill cycle
had two million CDRs going into the process, but only 1.85 million
lines of billable activity showing up on customer bills. A collections
system might show 100,000 bills going out, but only 98,000 being
collected.
The next logical question would be, “If there is no way to reconcile
inputs with outputs, then why do any reporting at all?”
Once we have established the normal conversion ratio for the sys-
tem, it becomes an easy matter to use these MI/MO reports to scan
for discrepancies.
