Is it possible for 4760 accounting numbers to be almost equal with my provider's accounts ???

I would like to know if the amount that I pay is correct.

Data :

1 provider
5 PRI
Unit every 60 seconds
Cost the first two minutes 0.03094
Cost after two minutes 0,00051567 / sec ( from 08:00 to 20:00 )
Cost after two minutes 0,00049584 / sec ( from 20:00 to 08:00 )
Cost after two minutes 0,00049584 / sec ( Saturday )
Cost after two minutes 0,00047600 /sec ( Sunday )

These are for local calls only.


The cost is given by the PCX. Which is the most accurate calculation mode and do you know any tips on setting up the system ???


I pay 20% more that the system statistics


Need some help
Thank you

Hi
What do you mean "The cost is given by the PCX"?
Let 4760 calculate the cost - it has very flexible tariff settings, different periods, VATs, subscription costs etc.
Let PBX only send tickets to 4760.

There is this setting on the carrier settings, the other is "based on unit" If I change that will the past records calculated with the new setting ??

The problem that I have is that I don't understand much the accounting settings and how to create cost zones.

The 4760 installation manual is very detailed about that.
Can you download it ?

I don't have access on support and I need many things

I believe that the solution is duration accounting for my case. I will setup the areas on the PBX or on the 4760 ????

Ok. I found some info and made some adjustments on the 4760 accounting.

Everytime a charge changes do I have to run a cost calculation job ?

As far as I know you will not get the same results as the public operator becouse the public operator has no interest in being so accurate. Omnivista gives you accurate readings and calculation, but the public operator probably adjusts the calculation in his favor. Here in Romania a scandal broke several months ago which was very close related to this issue.
On the Omnivista servers that we install, we try to be as close to the readings from the public operator using COST ADJUSTMENT in Omnivista (you simply calculate -let's say over 3 months - the difference in percentage between Omnivista reports and public operator's ones, and then apply that adjustment as a linear function).
Hope that helps.
