AMOUNT-CAP

Description

Short description of the Bundle, e.g. what does it aim at.

This bundle has the capacity of discounting invoice detail lines or subscription fee lines (that apply to the bundle). The discounting does not happen until the limit defined in VALUE1 is reached.
The bundle also includes a few different ways to discount as well.

Core info

Is this bundle available in Core? If yes, specify which version.

Available from version 1.3 of the Rator-bundles project.

Values

The meaning and use of the values of this bundle are as follows:

Value1

The maximum limit of usage inside the bundle. A Value1 of zero means unlimited

Value2

The current usage spent

Value3

Not used

Value4

Not used

Logic

The bundle starts by forwarding the rating in order to get invoice detail lines or subscription fee lines (mentioned as "detail lines" from here on) returned. Afterwards, it processes the result of the actual rating. Value2 is incremented, until it reaches Value1. The value processed is the total monetary amount of the detail lines returned by the rating, with respect to the configured detail line value strategy.

Info
titlePlease note

Give the bundle a high priority (low number) as other bundles should likely be used before this one

Description

Discounting

Zero rate discount line

DecreaseDiscountLineValueStrategy
or
DECREASE_AMOUNT

Yes

Discounts the detail line by decreasing the total value of the detail line. If the entire detail line is outside the bundle the detail line will be zero rated.

Discounting

Create negated discount lines

CreateNegatedDiscountLineStrategy
or
CREATE_NEGATED_LINE

 

Discounts by creating a copy of the discounted detail line with an opposite sign and adding it to the rating result.

Two optional arguments are provided: serviceCode and priceCode.
If any argument is not present, the charge item for the discount line is the same as discounted detail line.
If both arguments are present, the charge item for the discount line is looked up in the number plan identified by serviceCode and plan element identified by priceCode. The rate plan used for number plan identification is given by the billing context.

DiscountingCreate customized negated discount lineWorkflowEnabledNegateDiscountLineStrategy 

Discounts by creating a customized detail line, where amount to be discounted is set.

The customized detail line is returned from workflow invoked by the hookpoint having static key "BUNDLE.STRATEGY.DISCOUNT.NEGATE".

Value of detail linesTotal for billing groupCalculateDetailLinesValueForBillingGroupYesThe value of detail lines are calculated as a sum of total excl VAT and total VAT for the billing group in billing context (might be different for "normal" billing group if detail lines have been created for other billing group).
Value of detail linesTotal as percentageCalculateDetailLinesValueByPercentage The value of detail lines are calculated as a sum of total excl VAT and total VAT, regardless of billing group. The returned value is the configured percentage of the value of detail lines.

Parameters

The parameters available for the Amount Cap Bundle are described in the Strategies section.

Examples

Cap Bundle

Scenario: A bundle is required that discounts all detail lines outside the bundle, after DKK 100 is reached. It discounts by zero-rating the usage outside the bundle and decreases the total value of the splitting detail line.

Create an Amount Split Bundle and configure it to react on the desired plan elements. Set Value1 to 100. No bundle parameters are necessary as the desired strategies are already selected by default.
