Call Charge Information
DEFINITY ProLogix Solutions provides two ways to know the approximate charge for outgoing calls:
•
Advice of Charge — For ISDN trunks
Advice of Charge collects charge information from the public network for each
outgoing call. Charge advice is a number representing the cost of a call; it is
recorded as either a charging or currency unit.

•
Periodic Pulse Metering — For non-ISDN trunks
Periodic Pulse Metering accumulates pulses transmitted from the public network
at periodic intervals during an outgoing call. At the end of the call, the number of
pulses collected is the basis for determining charges.

Call-charge information helps you to account for the cost of outgoing calls without waiting for the next bill
from your network provider. This information is especially important in countries where telephone bills are
not itemized. You can also use this information to let employees know the cost of their telephone calls,
encouraging them to save money on toll calls.
