Intelis Billing Mediation

 

The Billing Record Generator (BRG) reads Taqua CDR from the Taqua TOM and generates AMA records and EMI records.

 

AMA Records

The AMA records created by the BRG are Structure Codes 0625, 0001, 0500, 0360 and 0364 as defined in the Telecordia document GR-1100.  These Structure Codes record the following types of calls:

·      7 digit local	·    7 digit intraLATA	·      10 digit local	·       1+10d intraLATA
·      1+10d intraLATA	·    1+10d interLATA	·      411 local DA	·       5551212 DA
·      1+NPA5551212 DA	·    700 XXX-XXXX	·      800 XXX-XXXX	·       8XX XXX-XXXX
·      1+900 XXX-XXXX

 

EMI Records

The BRG generates a sub-set of the Category 10 and Category 11 EMI records as defined in the ATIS document ATIS/OBF-EMI-016.  The Category 10 EMI records record all billable events such as toll calls and CLASS 5 feature usage.  The Category 11 EMI records are often referred to as CABS billing records and are typically used for reciprocal compensation.
