A charging plan is a set of instructions that determines a reference to:
Charge the calculated amount of a price plan to an account
Or refill the account with the calculated amount of the refill logic
A charging plan is represented by a charging tree whose leaves are References components (only Internal References are available).
When working with charges and charge plans for provider contracts, you create charging references which are typed.
