[Spce-user] Strange rate-o-mat behaviour v2.8

[George Mason]

Hi Daniel

Thanks that's very helpful. So I can see the following in the cdr table:

+------------------+-------------------------------+--------------------------------+--------------------------------+
| destination_user | source_carrier_billing_fee_id |
source_reseller_billing_fee_id | source_customer_billing_fee_id |
+------------------+-------------------------------+--------------------------------+--------------------------------+
| +441273900741    |                         46921
|                           NULL |                          46921 |
+------------------+-------------------------------+--------------------------------+--------------------------------+

And this relates to the following fee:

+-------+-------+--------------------+--------------------------+--------+-------------+-----------+------+------------------+----------------------+--------------------+------------------------+-------------------+-----------------------+---------------------+-------------------------+---------------+
| id    | bf_id | billing_profile_id | billing_zones_history_id | source
| destination | direction | type | onpeak_init_rate |
onpeak_init_interval | onpeak_follow_rate | onpeak_follow_interval |
offpeak_init_rate | offpeak_init_interval | offpeak_follow_rate |
offpeak_follow_interval | use_free_time |
+-------+-------+--------------------+--------------------------+--------+-------------+-----------+------+------------------+----------------------+--------------------+------------------------+-------------------+-----------------------+---------------------+-------------------------+---------------+
| 46921 | 46921 |                  2 |                     1147 | .     
| 73900       | out       | call |           0.0008 |                   
1 |             0.0008 |                      1 |            0.0008
|                     1 |              0.0008 |                       1
|             0 |
+-------+-------+--------------------+--------------------------+--------+-------------+-----------+------+------------------+----------------------+--------------------+------------------------+-------------------+-----------------------+---------------------+-------------------------+---------------+

What I do not understand is why rate-o-mat matched this fee? The prefix
that I expected it to match was this one:

+-------+-------+--------------------+--------------------------+--------+-------------+-----------+------+------------------+----------------------+--------------------+------------------------+-------------------+-----------------------+---------------------+-------------------------+---------------+
| id    | bf_id | billing_profile_id | billing_zones_history_id | source
| destination | direction | type | onpeak_init_rate |
onpeak_init_interval | onpeak_follow_rate | onpeak_follow_interval |
offpeak_init_rate | offpeak_init_interval | offpeak_follow_rate |
offpeak_follow_interval | use_free_time |
+-------+-------+--------------------+--------------------------+--------+-------------+-----------+------+------------------+----------------------+--------------------+------------------------+-------------------+-----------------------+---------------------+-------------------------+---------------+
| 49404 | 49404 |                  2 |                     1407 | .     
| 44          | out       | call |                1 |                   
1 |                  1 |                      1 |                 1
|                     1 |                   1 |                       1
|             0 |
+-------+-------+--------------------+--------------------------+--------+-------------+-----------+------+------------------+----------------------+--------------------+------------------------+-------------------+-----------------------+---------------------+-------------------------+---------------+

I have clearly misunderstood how to express dialled destinations in
billing fees - can you explain?

Thanks again

George
