30/09/11 SATbill latest updates
SATbill continues to expand the types of CDR files which may be billed through the system. It is now able to process CDR files from all the major global providers, and in a variety of formats. SATbill is also capable of loading and billing your own VSAT traffic, including both the traffic-based and non-traffic-based charges.
SATbill’s new “Charge Plan” handling now enables the system to bill all non-terminal-related charges, including those received from the providers, such as Letter Of Guarantee, activation and deactivation charges. These can either be picked up from the CDR-like charge files from your provider, or by defining pure service-based charges within your SATbill system. In this way you can now easily bill any non-terminal charge to any customer or vessel, be it for VSAT, Anti-virus or e-mail services.
SATbill now supports wider range of invoicing options – from per-terminal invoicing, to per-customer invoicing. For any contract with any customer you may now choose at which level to generate invoices. SATbill also provides a wider range of invoice layouts, all of which may be configured to your exact needs.
