Creating a provider contract

Caution: Do not manually create a provider contract if SAP Convergent Charging is already interfaced with a CRM application or an external provisioning system responsible for managing provider contracts and customer master data. Refer to the caution for provider contracts.

 

Recommendations: You can manually create a provider contract to:

  • Set up end-to-end tests of your pricing modeling

  • Simulate the results of the implementation of the provisioning process between your CRM application and SAP Convergent Charging. This simulation can help you in validating the design of this implementation activity.

To create a provider contract for test, demo, or training purposes

  1. From the menu bar in the main window, select File > New > Provider Contract.

  2. Click OK. The Choose a subscriber account window opens.

  3. Search for the subscriber account that must refer to the new provider contract.

  4. Select the relevant subscriber account, and then click OK. The New Provider Contract window opens.

  5. Type the name of the provider contract. Choose a name which is not currently used for an existing provider contract.

  6. Set up the provider contract.

  7. Verify that the provider contract is correctly set up by clicking the Verify icon on the main window toolbar. Correct all elements underlined in red.

  8. Save the provider contract.
