Transaction Feed Management

Oracle Revenue Management and Billing provides you with a facility to upload banking and Administrative Services Only (ASO) transactions received from various product processors or applications for billing. You can use the File Upload Interface feature to upload transaction data files in the following formats:

• Comma Separated Values

• JavaScript Object Notation

• Fixed Position

• Pipe Separated Values

• Tilde Separated Values

• Extensible Markup Language

For more information on how to upload the data using the File Upload Interface feature, refer to the respective feature documentation. Once the transaction data is uploaded in the system, you need to:

• Validate Header Details

• Validate Transaction Details and Determine Initial Product

• Verify Price Item Pricing

• Rate Transactions Before Billing (if required)

• Create and Update Billable Charge with the SQI values

• Clean-up Unwanted Data

The system provides the flexibility to rate the transactions either prior to billing or during billing. Based on the business requirements, you can configure the system such that transactions mapped to some price item can be rated at a frequency which is different than the account's billing frequency. For example, daily, weekly, etc. During the transaction feed management process, each transaction goes through various statuses until it is billed to the person. For more information about the transaction statuses, see Transaction Status Transition.

The transaction feed management process includes the following sub-processes:

• Transaction Aggregation

• Transaction Disaggregation

• Transaction Cancellation

• Transaction Rollback
