Business Context and Use

This process component enables you to manage the operational status of the charging contracts in SAP Convergent Charging.

This process component is used to:

• Suspend or resume some services related to charging contracts
• Prevent or authorize the modification of the data related to charging contracts

In the context of contract transfer, this process component is used with the Customer Data Export and Import process component to prevent using contracts being moved from one SAP CC system to another SAP CC system.

The values of the operational status are:

• Active: The charging contract is fully operational. You can set the status of the contract to 'locked'. You can delete the contract. You cannot set it to 'closed'.
• Locked: The charging contract is temporarily locked (in case of contract transfer for instance). You cannot modify or delete the contract and the data related to this contract. The contract is not available for charging, rerating, refilling, activation, and other SAP CC processes. The status of the contract can be changed to 'active' or 'closed'. The contract can be exported.

  Note

  The data related to a contract include:

  • The linked charging contracts
  • The allowances
  • The contract states

• Closed: The charging contract is no longer operational: it is definitively locked. The contract cannot be modified. The contract is not available for charging or other SAP CC processes. The status of the contract cannot be changed. This contract can only be exported, deleted, or overwritten with the import operation.
