Amount Cap Bundle

Code Code of the Bundle as seen in the GUI.	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.
Business scenario	See examples
Applies to Types of traffic (plan elements) that the bundle should be associated with.	No limitations
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.

Please note

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

Strategies

The Amount Split Bundle implements different strategies for its three main functionalities:

Main strategy	Key	Description
Discounting	DISCOUNT_STRATEGY	Defines how a discount should be processed

All strategy types are defined using the bundle parameters as used by many other bundle types (i.e. DISCOUNT_STRATEGY=CREATE_NEGATED_LINE). The current implementations of the main strategies are:

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

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.
