Billable Interval Quantities for a Service Agreement

Billable interval quantities are linked to the service agreement. These quantities are linked through an Interval Profile. The interval data that is received over time is linked to the service agreement in one of the following ways:

• It is uploaded from an external source. Refer to Upload Interval Data for more information.

• It may be created in the system through data derivation algorithms. Refer to Creation of Profile Data through Data Derivation for more information.

All the data received throughout time could be plotted as a curve. For interval quantities, the curve is referred to as an Interval Profile.

The profile references a Profile Type that defines the physical attributes of the data curve. It defines the unit of measure, the interval size and may also contain data derivation algorithms, which actually populate the profile with data based on other information. Refer to Designing Interval Profile Types and Creation of Profile Data through Data Derivation for more information.
