- Recommendation I.256 - Charging supplementary services
-
-
-
- The purpose of this Recommendation is to provide the stage1 description of the technique defined in
- RecommendationI.130 using the means given in RecommendationI.210.
-
-
-
- Supplementary services are described by a prose definition and description (step1.1) and by a dynamic
- description (step1.3). The application of the attribute technique, as defined in RecommendationI.140, for supple-
- mentary services is for further study.
-
-
-
- This Recommendation describes the following charging supplementary services:
-
-
-
- I.256.1 Credit Card Calling (CRED) (Note 1)
-
- I.256.2 Advice Of Charge (AOC)
-
- I.256.3 Reverse Charging (REV) (Note 1)
-
-
-
- Note 1 - This service being identified need to be further studied and the description is not yet included.
-
-
-
- I.256.1 Credit Card Calling
-
-
-
- These services being identified need to be further studied and the descriptions are not yet included.

-
-
-
- When the user has made a conference call, the overall charge for the conference call may be included in the charge
- advice information element.
-
-
-
- Charges for the use of the conference bridge: this charging information may be sent to the conference controller.
- However, in some networks no charging information can be given in this case, e.g. due to off-line processing of the
- charges.

-
- The service may be requested on a per call basis or it may be active for all calls. The charging information is pro-
- vided by the network during call establishment phase or at the latest at call connection. The information is transferred
- to the user in the charge advice information element in the call control message.
-
-
-
- When there is a change in the charge interval during the call, the network sends information about the new charge
- interval. This information is sent in the charge advice information element.
-
-
-
- 3.3 Exceptional procedures
-
-
-
- 3.3.1 Activation/deactivation/registration
-
-

-
-
-
- No alternate procedures have been identified.
-
-
-
- 4. Network capabilities for charging
