Arguments

  • ActionID - ActionID for this transaction. Will be returned.

  • Channel - Channel name to generate the AOC message on.

  • ChannelPrefix - Partial channel prefix. By using this option one can match the beginning part of a channel name without having to put the entire name in. For example if a channel name is SIP/snom-00000001 and this value is set to SIP/snom, then that channel matches and the message will be sent. Note however that only the first matched channel has the message sent on it.

  • MsgType - Defines what type of AOC message to create, AOC-D or AOC-E

    • D

    • E

  • ChargeType - Defines what kind of charge this message represents.

    • NA

    • FREE

    • Currency

    • Unit

  • UnitAmount(0) - This represents the amount of units charged. The ETSI AOC standard specifies that this value along with the optional UnitType value are entries in a list. To accommodate this these values take an index value starting at 0 which can be used to generate this list of unit entries. For Example, If two unit entires were required this could be achieved by setting the paramter UnitAmount(0)=1234 and UnitAmount(1)=5678. Note that UnitAmount at index 0 is required when ChargeType=Unit, all other entries in the list are optional.

  • UnitType(0) - Defines the type of unit. ETSI AOC standard specifies this as an integer value between 1 and 16, but this value is left open to accept any positive integer. Like the UnitAmount parameter, this value represents a list entry and has an index parameter that starts at 0.

  • CurrencyName - Specifies the currency's name. Note that this value is truncated after 10 characters.

  • CurrencyAmount - Specifies the charge unit amount as a positive integer. This value is required when ChargeType==Currency.

  • CurrencyMultiplier - Specifies the currency multiplier. This value is required when ChargeType==Currency.
