Maximal Spent
The Maximal Spent feature, also known as Bill Shock Prevention, helps prevent excessive charges on a specific type of usage, such as EU Roaming. This feature applies a discount during the billing cycle run based on the effective amount, which is the sum of all events of that certain type during the billing period.
Key features of the Maximal Spent feature include:
-
Maximum Threshold Configuration: You can set the maximum threshold for the total amount spent on a specific type of usage. This ensures that the discount is only applied when the total spent amount exceeds the specified threshold.
-
Bill-Cap Application: The discount is always applied by creating a new discount event that reflects the discounted amount separately from the original event. This provides flexibility in how the discount is tracked and reported.
-
Usage Type Specific: The discount can be applied to specific usage types, ensuring that the discount is relevant to the customer’s usage patterns.
