Intra Account Calling enables you to create a custom rate for customers with telephony services on the same account.

To activate Intra Account Calling, please contact Emersion for further information.

In summary;

  • For a particular usage record, the destination FNN must match;
    • An active service under the same end user account
    • An "IntraAccount Discounting Allowed" setting Enabled on both service plans
    • A rate set on the appropriate "Intra Account Calls" tariff on the source subscription's rate card

Example:

Service A Service B
FNN: 0399991234 FNN: 03888884567
Service Plan A Service Plan B
Intra Account Discounting is Enabled Intra Account Discounting is Enabled
Rate Card A Rate Card B
Has both a Local Calls rate set (eg. $1), and an Intra Account Calls rate set ($5) Has both a Local Calls rate set (eg. $1), and an Intra Account Calls rate set ($5)
  • Service A calls Service B
  • The system will see this as a local call, however it will also see that the destination matches an active service subscription under the same end user account
  • In addition, the system sees that Service Plan B also has the Intra Account Discounting Allowed setting is Enabled and as such;
  • The system will therefore stamp the final retail rating record with the tariff matching "Intra Account Calls" and rate according to it's rate profile ($5 in this example).
    • If no rate exists, the system will loop up to the Base Rate (rarely set) and if not found enter rating quarantine with reason Invalid Rate
