Spending plan

Link copied to clipboard

A spending plan defines the amount of money per day that a reseller can spend on services. PortaBilling tracks the reseller’s daily charges and once this spending limit is reached, the reseller’s services are suspended. However, customers of resellers who have reached their spending limit can still make calls to emergency numbers. Regular service usage is reinstated on the following day, once the spending plan is renewed.

A spending plan only prevents new sessions (e.g., new phone calls) from being established once the spending limit is reached; it does not interrupt sessions in progress nor take into consideration existing locked funds.

Here you can view the details of the reseller’s current spending plan, the amount already spent and the information for when a new plan applies if you changed it for the reseller.

Reseller spending plan panel If the reseller has used up their spending plan and wants their customers to continue using the services, you can manually increase their spending limit or reset the spent amount to zero.

To temporarily increase the reseller's spending limit (the amount of money all the reseller’s customers may spend on services per day), specify the new value in the Threshold field. The new threshold is applied at once and is effective until 00:00:00 on the next day. At midnight, the default limit automatically becomes effective again. Click Undo Undo to restore the default spending limit.

To reset the reseller’s spent amount, click Reset usage. The spent amount will be calculated from scratch until the spending threshold is reached.
