Add price selection rule

Use this panel to create a centralized rule for selecting prices in origin-based rates. You can apply these rules in tariffs where prices are defined per code groups (supports CLI+CLD rating). Once created, the rules become available system-wide (within the virtual environment).

To add a new price selection rule, click +Rule on the Price selection rules list, fill in the details, and click Save.

Type the name for the price selection rule.

Select the service type from the dropdown list:

• Voice calls
• Messaging service
• Other

Select the type for the price selection rule. The selected type defines how many basic prices can be configured in a rate and under which conditions they apply.

• Default – allows a single basic price for a specific destination
• Peak/Off Peak – allows two basic prices in the rate: one for peak hours and one for off-peak hours
• Peak/2 Off Peaks – allows three basic prices in the rate: for peak, off-peak, and second off-peak periods
• Inter/Intra Zone – allows two basic prices in the rate for interstate and intrastate zones.

• Inter/Intra Zone with Off Peak – allows three basic prices in the rate: for interstate peak, interstate off-peak, and intra-rate zone

Select a code group set for this pricing selection rule. 

To use this price selection rule in origin-based rates, select a previously created code group set for matching origination numbers (CLI).

Select the mode that defines how extra rates should be applied under this rule:

• Add extra rates to basic rates as a surcharge – in this mode, when creating an origin-based rate, you can define extra rates as surcharges. These will be added to the basic price if the caller’s number matches a specific rate code (e.g., a country code).
• Replace basic rates with the extra rate – in this mode, when creating an origin-based rate, you can define extra rates as new prices that replace the basic price if the caller’s number matches a specific rate code (e.g., a country code).
