Billing Data Extracts

When sending billing related data to an external system, both historical and current data needs to be extracted.

Historical data can be extracted as part of an initial load process, and only needs to be provided during initial setup of the integration. Historical data includes data history for all bill segments for a specified historical period that are:

  • Linked to completed bills.

  • Not linked to bills but are linked to frozen FTs that are linked to completed bills.

Current data should be extracted on a regular ongoing (or incremental) basis. However, in addition to sending current data, any billing corrections should be extracted as well.

Extraction of billing data is performed through use of data synchronization, post bill completion algorithms, business objects and related batch processes.
