3.6 CATALOGUE
There are three types of Catalogue reference data, namely:
Product Group Categories
Product Group
Products

Setting up a Product involves creating Product Group Categories and then Product Groups.
You add Product Groups to Product Group Categories and then add Products to the Product Groups.
This association allows Products and Product Groups to be grouped in a variety of ways for billing
purposes.
NOTE:
At least one Product Group Category must have the Billing Indicator set. This ensures that at least
one Category, it’s Product Groups and Products are used for rating purposes and appears on the Daily
Summary.

When you set a Product Group Category as mandatory for billing, all Product Groups and Products
must be associated with it.
You can create other optional Product Group Categories and use them to categorise Product Groups
and Products for reporting purposes.

3.6.1 Product Group Categories

Product Group Categories are created for high level grouping of Product Groups. Examples include
Billing Category, Non-Billing, and so on.

4 NETWORK DATA

4.1 CIRCUIT SWITCHED

4.1.1 Network Node / Switch

A switch is a piece of hardware which interconnects with another operator's network via a trunk
group and which creates Call Detail Records (CDRs) of calls made by customers. Both franchises and
network operators have switches in their systems.

A franchise may have many switches, each of which is connected to many different network operator
switches, each via a different trunk group.

Although both franchises and network operators have switches in their system Interconnect is only
concerned with the franchise’s switches where the call is passed to (or received from) the network
operator. Switches belong to a franchise, POIs to network operators.

In the context of the Interconnect application the Point Of Interconnect (POI) is a logical point within

A Tier is a logical Rating concept. It indicates where a call originates and terminates and is used as a
key component of the Rate. In other words, whenever Rates need to be varied, a different Tier may
be used. Tiers are derived using the Tier Derivation Styles on the Rating Rules panel. Tiers are set up

different properties. The Tier can be derived using only the Network Address (CNP), the Point of
Interconnect and Network Address (CNP), the Network Address Aggregation and also the style
specified on the Network Address (CNP) itself.
