Multi-Batch Billing with BlueRockTEL

By BlueRockTEL Team

The Batch Billing Principle

By default, BlueRockTEL processes billing for all active customer records in a single monthly campaign. This is the standard operation, suited to the vast majority of operators.

However, some organisations need to manage multiple billing batches within the same month.

Typical Use Cases

Multi-batch billing addresses two common situations:

  • Heterogeneous services — You bill both telecom and IT services (managed services, cloud) with different monthly billing cycles
  • Multi-source CDR operators — You integrate CDR files from multiple operators whose availability dates differ, and you do not want to delay your overall billing run while waiting for the last files

Setting Up Batches

Each BlueRockTEL instance comes with a default batch. You can create additional batches from the Configuration > Batches menu.

For each batch, you define:

  • A custom name for easy identification
  • The desired monthly launch date

Day-to-Day Use

Once configured, batches attach to billing records (not to customers themselves), which allows services to be separated as needed.

When launching a billing operation — in pre-production or production — you simply select the batch to process. Each batch runs independently, providing substantial operational flexibility for complex telecom and cloud billing environments.
