  • Dynamic Usage Class: enables the advanced dynamic usage classes feature. For more information see the Dynamic Usage Classes screen help

  • Rule Variable: specifies the custom field list to use when configuring a dynamic usage class. For more information see the Dynamic Usage Classes screen help

  • Amount Precision: specifies the number of digits to round the rated amount to after the decimal place (max of 11 digits supported). This value will be used if the Amount Precision value on the rate group is not set

  • Amount Rounding Type: this value is referenced if the Amount Rounding Type is not set on the Rate Group. If the Rounding Type is not set on the Rate Group nor the Owner (e.g. after system upgrade to version 10.3 or higher) then the rounding behavior will default to ‘Half Up’

  • Rate Plan: an owner level rate plan that can be used to rate usage if a rate plan is not found at a lower level (account level, account-package level, etc.)

  • Late Usage Rating Threshold: Allows back-dated usage on cancelled account-services to be processed for a period up to 365 days after the service was cancelled. Usage records with a date that falls within the service’s active period but received after the service was cancelled will be rated if the date the records are processed falls within the set late usage rating threshold (e.g. if the threshold is set to 30 days and a usage record is received 25 days post service cancellation, the usage will be processed). Any usage that comes in beyond the specified threshold value will go into exception (specifically, the “Usage Final Billed” exception type). Back-dated usage that falls within the set threshold will be processed and rated as though it came in during the billing period that the record’s usage dates fall within. Usage will be mediated, rated and bucketed based on any buckets attached to/used by the account-service in the specific billing period. A daily aggregate record will also be created that billing can pick up and bill

...

From this panel you can view the payment types that are currently setup. When a payment gateway is configured the payment types it the gateway supports will automatically be populated on this tab (Visa, Mastercard, ACH, etc.). Each payment type listed on this tab will indicate which payment gateway it goes through, or list no gateway at all if the payment type is strictly used to record payments on an account in the LogiSense Billing application and does not go through a gateway.

...

For an example on how to add a payment type see the Payment Types Configuration Example article.

SAML Setting

This menu allows you to enable and configure SAML settings to integrate with a third party identity provider in order to enable single sign-on (SSO) functionality. Okta and Azure AD integrations are currently supported in LogiSense Billing.

For instructions on how to configure SSO for Okta or Azure see the Single Sign On Configuration guide.

SAML Settings

  • Enabled: enables SSO. Once this option is set a ‘Log in with SSO’ option will appear when logging into the LogiSense Billing AdminPortal

    Image Added
  • Entity ID: the name of the configuration setup on the identity provider

  • Provider Metadata URL: a URL from the identity provider that contains all of the SAML specific settings used to enable the SSO integration

  • Test Settings: Verifies if the supplied Entity ID and Provider MetaData URL are correct

  • SCIM Access Token

    • Get Token: generates a token that will grant an identity provider access to the LogiSense Billing application. The token generated here needs to be copied into the identity provider portal to enable the integration. See the Single Sign On Configuration guide for instructions on how to configure the token in the identity provider portal

    • Refresh Token: generates a new token. This will prevent SSO users from logging into the LogiSense Billing application until the new token is updated in the identity provider portal

    • Clear Token: clears the current token which will prevent SSO users from logging into the LogiSense Billing application until a new token is generated and the new token is updated in the identity provider portal
