TM Forum Community

Hello all,

I would like to know about how the concept of product pricing i.e non-usage charges (example below) and the retrieval of charges associated to product pricing works with respect to TMForum concepts.

For example,

Lets say there is a product - which is a bundle involving 500 mins of entitlements and say, 10 GB data with a price of $5 monthly.

If this is sold with a service, the account associated with this service is charged $5 monthly. If I wanted to retrieve what this service or this account has been charged over a period of time, what concepts can be used for this retrieval from TMForum? Can someone please provide the links in the reply, thanks.

Regards,

Remya

Hi Remya,

If you are looking for non-usage based charges, then is it not straightforward to determine the product based charges for the given account for whatever the period you are looking for as it would be a constant charge unless the account subscription changes with a new quote using a new offer or promotion or product. 

Are you looking for an OpenAPI out of the box to get the aggregated (non-usage) changes for the given time period, given account and associated with the given product?
