A number of schools have experienced the embarrassment that certification systems say someone is on the line, and billing systems do not start to run; or accounts are disabled early and billings are still running. Problems arise when authentication and billing run apart, and people get mixed up manually or time-consuming. If two sets of books are excluded, the certification and billing actions will be made in the same chain.
The moment the certification is approved, we should open an account.
The standard practice is to have the online event be passed on to a billing module by authentication equipment after certification has been successful, which starts running a session, a time or traffic count. This means that the authentication and costing are the same meeting identifications, which can then be matched to the same account, whether it is switched off, roaming or forced down. If there is a fixed time task between them to brush data, the delay becomes an unclear gap in reconciliation.
The authentication strategy changes the billing.
The difference between the default exemption of the teaching area from the bill and the fee for the long-term accommodation is essentially determined by the regional labels in the certification strategy. The billing rules should read the area label directly, rather than allowing the network to manually draw the area through the system. The certificate side adjusts the area affiliation, and the billing side automatically follows the process so that there are no complaints that the school area has been mischarged.
Disable and sell for the same exit.
If the disablement is not synchronized to a billing system, the old account may still generate an in arrears or a quota.
The most easy way to go is to get the money.
If the billing system treats each heavy consultation as a new session, it will double time or time out. The correct approach is to combine the same segment of the time continuously on the web by account number dimensions, make seamless browsing on the certification side, and only accept the account number without recognizing the point of access switch.
The account is based on the details of the system.
The reconciliation is done on the basis of who counts. The certification system records the bottom line, and the billing system records the context of each money. Both should be consistent, but in case of deviations, retroactive authentication logs are used as a breakdown of the charge, rather than re-calculating them with the certified log.
You have to draw an event flow chart before you get online.
Before authentication and billing links are made, a map of the correspondence between the events that were connected to the account number, downline, disabled, roaming in two systems is drawn. The next step is to give the billing and extrapolation and write the field clearly before it is developed. Many of the connection failures result from inconsistent definitions of events, and the drawing is exposed.
The test is for a real anomaly.
The actual network is unusual, with only the usual connections measured on a pleasant path and the first day of access to it.
The clocks are the same on both sides.
The seconds when the authentication equipment and billing server clocks are different from the online event and the billing session. Before you connect, two devices will be combinated to the same time source, so the log timeline will be aligned. This detail is invisible.
Permissions are to be divided.
The authentication and billing systems do not share the administration accounts. Whoever changes the certification strategy, who moves the billing rules, leaves a mark on each.
The caller wants both sides present.
The certification and the billing combinations do not certify that the manufacturer has moved out, nor does the billing company. Both parties have to be present to see the event flow chart one by one, and who pushes it. Separated adjustments make it easier to leave a gap at the interface, and then call the account back on line and push each other.
Keep manual reconciliations in the background
Automatically, the system also leaves manual reconciliations at its entry points. When a system is abnormal, the net tubes can match the original records on both sides of the system and not even out.
Change has to be notified.
The authentication side has changed the area label to give notice of whether the billing side confirmation rules are aligned with them. This is the most easy way to break when two systems are divided into teams.
Time sequence to draw documents
The connection logic is not just words, but a time sequence: which event first, what to push, how do the bill respond? It is not easy to misunderstand. New people can understand it by taking over the map. Time series go into the turn-on document and then connect.
Connect to the drill.
NATHHELL_AUTH_BILLING connects to the other lines, regardless of how it works. It's included in a malfunction exercise every semester.
The network is close to production.
The reconciliations are not even, but the logic. The first response is to link up with the difference between the two tracks, which are not aligned and then compared to the amount in the course of the lesson. Many of the calculations appear wrong, but the authentication events are recorded later than a few seconds into another day.
The authentication and billing book are two ends of a chain, hard-breeding into two separate systems, which is the way all reconciliation problems follow. The connection is not so simple as to add an interface; it is to describe the three things in both systems: account status, regional labels, session life cycles.
