Routing
This field is only available for tariffs applied to vendors. Choose whether this tariff will participate in the routing. Turn on the toggle to enable routing so that the calls will be routed outside your network. When routing is disabled, this means that calls will be sent to your network. By default, routing is disabled.
Define prices
Select how to define prices:
- Per individual rate code – choose this option for a standard tariff, where prices are set per rate code (phone prefix or special code). Optionally, you can assign a code group set to the tariff to set prices per code group.
- Per code group (supports CLI+CLD rating) – choose this option for a tariff where the prices can only be set per code group. This option allows you to configure origin-based rates, which include a base price and an extra price that applies based on the call origin.
Code group set
Select a code group set to enable pricing per code group within that set. For tariffs where prices are defined per individual rate code, this is optional. For tariffs where prices are defined per code group (supports CLI+CLD rating), this is mandatory.
Rate match mode
For tariffs where prices are defined per code group (supports CLI+CLD rating), this shows the rate match mode associated with the selected code group set.
