    I need to model product offering that has different price in following months/ billing cycles starting from installation date.

    Eg.
    PO has recurring price:
    * $20 in the first 3 months form instalation date
    * $30 in the 4-12 months from instalation date
    * $40 after 12 month.

    I cannot find neithe on ProductOfferingPrice nor ProductOffeingPriceAlteration / ProducrOfferingPriceHharge and attributtes that seem to be right.
    Is there any way recommented in standard to model this in Product SID ?​

    Hi Katarzyna
    The pricing model in the TMF Open API product catalog is very simple. Quite apart from price changes that are duration-sensitive, we don't have the ability to model price tiering, or sensitivity of price to product characteristic values, and more.
    You can of course extend the catalog model to meet your needs. Amdocs has done this in our Amdocs Catalog offering, and I am sure that other vendors have made extensions to meet these needs.
