Comptel has released the Interconnect Billing Solution, which is designed to help service providers settle charges with other service providers for using each other's networks and services.
The Comptel Interconnect Billing Solution is expected to overcome many of the challenges posed by next-generation networks and services, while still supporting existing and more traditional services, Comptel says.
The solution's functionality includes managing business agreements, processing data, rating and discounting, reconciliation of bills and reporting. It provides open interfaces, including a web-based, easy-to-use GUI, and XML-based interfaces to other systems such as enterprise resource planning systems offered by Oracle and SAP.
