This chapter lists the implementation considerations for TBI.
This chapter covers the following topics:
Consider the following implementation points before implementing Oracle TBI:
Oracle TBI depends on the Oracle Telecommunications Service Ordering (TSO) solution.
The TSO solution leverages multiple components of the Oracle EBS to enable telecommunications service providers to order new telecommunications services for their customers and to order updates to existing telecommunications service configurations. All products, accounts, and orders for telecommunications services captured in EBS are synchronized with the third party billing system(s) that rate and generate bills for the services ordered.
Refer Oracle Telecommunications Service Ordering Process Guide for details.
TBI integrates with any middleware that has a native AQ or JMS adapter. TBI has been tested and certified with Oracle Applications InterConnect (OAI 9.0.4). For details, see Configuring the Middleware.
TBI provides a robust two-way integration which enables exchange of information between Oracle E-Business Suite and the external billing applications.
Routing rules in the middleware allow integration with multiple heterogeneous billing applications. Middleware tracks the billing applications and the E-Business Suite communicates with the middleware.
