Customer:Teletronics

Add support for custom CDR format

• As discussed during on-site visit.
• In-progress
• 12 hours of work already purchased, should be sufficient

Prepaid usage limits

• Enable the existing usage-limiting counters for the prepaid price plan.
• Small amount of work (8-12 hours)

Package-specific prepaid cards

• Prepaid card autogeneration should lock prepaid cards into a specific set of packages.
• Medium amount of work (16-24 hours)

More flexible frequency (prepaid duration) specification

• Add # options to part_pkg.freq (3 hours, 3 days, etc.)
• Small amount of work (4-8 hours)

Inventory

• Add the ability to blank out inventory for a specific inventory class completely.
• Add the ability to remove a single item from inventory, without provisioning to a customer.
• Small amount of work (8-12 hours).

Availability packages

• "availability" packages start from first login, not order
• future work, not currently planned for implementation

Prepaid printer integration

Process flow

• TAG unit requests a prepaid card (or username) from freeside, passes along TAG unit identifier, which led# and a shared secret:

https://example.com//keygen.cgi?nsid=NNN;secret=XXXXX;led=X

(Freeside stores/verifies shared secret for each nsid)

• Prepaid card is generated on-the-fly by Freeside and sent back to TAG unit.

• Freeside sends back a formatted receipt ready for printing, from one of the three following templates:
  • Error template
  • PIN (prepaid card) template for one-time users
  • Username/password template for recurring users

• Tag unit prints the receipt/ticket received from Freeside

• Freeside stores the NSID along with the generated prepaid card.

• User uses the prepaid card to signup normally (or the existing username/password to sign on)

• NSID from prepaid card is stored on the customer record on signup.

Additional/alternate flow option

• Freeside auto-creates account and sends back ticket with user/pass

• user uses user/pass directly

• add flag to packages indicating reply message should not be PIN/card, but instead should auto-create username/password (customer record info comes from per-location info (location stores template custnum?))
