โ Frequently Asked Questions
What happens when I make a payment to an account?
When you perform a Payment operation, the specified amount is added to the account’s current balance. The payment is recorded in the payment records table with timestamp, operator ID, and any memo notes. If the SERVER_PAY_DELAY_CUSTOMER_EXPIRE_DAY parameter is configured, the account expiration date will also be extended.
What is the difference between Payment and Credit?
Payment adds funds directly to the account balance, increasing the available credit. Credit sets the overdraft limit, which allows the account to go negative up to that limit. Use Payment for normal recharges; use Credit to allow postpaid-style calling beyond current balance.
How do I track all payments made by an agent?
Navigate to Data query > Payment record and filter by the operator name. All payments made by that agent user will be displayed. You can export this report for accounting purposes.
Can payments be reversed or deleted?
Payment records cannot be directly deleted from the transaction history for audit purposes. To correct an erroneous payment, perform a negative adjustment (make a payment with negative impact by adjusting balance) or use the Make Zero function to reset balance, then add the correct amount.
How does the minimum consumption work with payments?
Minimum consumption (Monthly Min) ensures a minimum revenue per account. At the beginning of each month (configured time), if the account’s consumption for the previous month was below the minimum, the difference is charged from the account balance. Ensure accounts have adequate balance to cover minimum consumption charges.
