Periodic Charge Functions

Overview

The NCC Charging API offers a periodic charge management functions for usage within your scripts.

All periodic charge state and subscription information and operations are for the current logical subscriber only.

Subscriber periodic charge information is never cached.

Data Lookup

▲ ccs.periodic_charge.get_charge_state (periodic_charge_id, lookup_info)
  Parameters periodic_charge_id The periodic charge ID to retrieve state information about for the logical subscriber.
    lookup_info A table of subscriber lookup information. Optional; will be automatically retrieved if not provided.
  Returns A periodic charge state entry with the state of the periodic charge for the current logical subscriber. If no periodic charge information is found, the ‘Unsubscribed’ (2) state will be returned for consistency with NCC’s built-in periodic charge functions.
  Errors If no periodic_charge_id is provided:

Periodic charge ID must be supplied.

If no periodic charges are retrieved for the logical subscriber’s ACS customer or the periodic charge information is not able to be turned into a table:

No periodic charge with ID <periodic_charge_id> found for ACS customer ID <acs_cust_id>.

Usage This function queries the Lua runtime for subscriber and customer data and looks for the periodic charge specified, returning its state as a periodic charge state entry. Any subscriber lookup information provided will be used instead of performing fresh retrieval operations.
