Policy Configuration
Policy configuration components are used by MATRIXX Charging Application and MATRIXX Policy Application for charging and rating.
Policy Session Mappings
In MATRIXX 3G, 4G, and 5G environments using MATRIXX Policy Application, each policy session includes an Attr field of type MtxPolicySessionExtension that includes any custom policy session fields. You can map fields in the incoming network message to these Attr fields, or to any custom MATRIXX Data Container (MDC) fields that extend it, to save the field value throughout Gx, N40, Sy, and N28 policy sessions. This allows you to set up rating based on that value.
Policy Session Mapping Properties
Policy session mappings copy fields in the network message to the MtxPolicySessionExtension MATRIXX Data Container (MDC) or a custom container derived from it.

- About My MATRIXX Help
  My MATRIXX Help provides information about My MATRIXX, a web application that offers a central location for creating pricing plans and configuring MATRIXX charging and rating behaviors. My MATRIXX is intended for pricing administrators who are responsible for creating and maintaining pricing plans and for IT administrators or developers who configure the rating and charging behavior of the online charging system.
- Introducing My MATRIXX
  The following information describes the My MATRIXX interface.
- Using My MATRIXX
  You use My MATRIXX to validate and compile the pricing configuration file, compile pricing, and set up and manage user roles and domains; create and manage catalog items and catalogs, manage eligibility features and rules, and manage the Normalizers interface; create and manage balances, pricing, offers and bundles, general components, and application-related components; and policies for charging and rating. Use General Configuration to create components that support pricing items and charging functionality such as announcements pricing components, attribute definitions, denial codes, products, decision tables, Final Unit Indication (FUI) profiles and generators, general ledger transaction types, notification profiles, normalizer templates, and subscriber information query actions, profiles, and generators.
- Home Menu
  The following information describes the tasks that can be performed using the My MATRIXX Home menu.
- Catalog Configuration
  Catalog Configuration contains the Catalog Items interface that you use to create, change, or delete catalog items; the Eligibility interface to manage eligibility features and rules to determine whether a subscriber, group, or device is eligible for a catalog item; and the Normalizers interface you use to edit normalizers.
- Charging Configuration
  Charging Configuration has the interfaces you use to create and manage balance, pricing, product offer and bundle, general, and application-related components.
- Policy Configuration
  Policy configuration components are used by MATRIXX Charging Application and MATRIXX Policy Application for charging and rating.
  - Policy Overview
    You must have the Pricing User domain role to access this menu and all its components. For more information, see the discussion about technical user roles.
  - Policy Session Mappings
    In MATRIXX 3G, 4G, and 5G environments using MATRIXX Policy Application, each policy session includes an Attr field of type MtxPolicySessionExtension that includes any custom policy session fields. You can map fields in the incoming network message to these Attr fields, or to any custom MATRIXX Data Container (MDC) fields that extend it, to save the field value throughout Gx, N40, Sy, and N28 policy sessions. This allows you to set up rating based on that value.
    - Create a Policy Session Mapping
      You can create one policy session mapping that maps any number of MATRIXX Data Container (MDC) fields to fields in a policy session MDC.
    - Change a Policy Session Mapping
      You can change the session data container in which fields are saved throughout a policy session.
    - Delete a Policy Session Field Mapping
      When you delete a policy session field mapping, it is no longer available for rating.
    - Policy Session Mapping Properties
      Policy session mappings copy fields in the network message to the MtxPolicySessionExtension MATRIXX Data Container (MDC) or a custom container derived from it.
  - Policy Components
    The 5G MATRIXX policy components include spending limit configuration components. The 3G/4G MATRIXX policy components include spending limit configuration components, session management policy components, policy session mappings, event trigger groups, and event triggers.
  - Event Trigger Groups
    Diameter Gx event triggers define when the PCEF is notified of changing network conditions. An event trigger group is a collection of event triggers that are assigned to a policy profile.
  - Event Triggers
    Gx event triggers tell the Policy and Charging Enforcement Function (PCEF) which network events must send a new Credit-Control Response (CCR) to the Policy and Charging Rules Function (PCRF) for a possible policy change. Each event trigger has a string value name and an associated non-negative integer value.
  - Spending Limit Configuration
    Configure the spending limit control components when using a Policy and Charging Rules Function (PCRF) or Policy Control Function (PCF) that is external to MATRIXX Engine. For 5G MATRIXX environments, the spending limit control configuration reference point (N28) is located between your external PCF and MATRIXX Engine as a Charging Function (CHF). For 3G/4G environments, the spending limit control configuration reference point (Diameter Sy) is located between an external PCRF and MATRIXX Engine as an OCS.
  - Session Management Policy Configuration
    The Gx session management policy reference point is located between a Policy and Charging Enforcement Function (PCEF) and the Policy and Charging Rules Function (PCRF) internal to MATRIXX.

Policy Session Mapping Properties

Policy session mappings copy fields in the network message to the MtxPolicySessionExtension MATRIXX Data Container (MDC) or a custom container derived from it.

Policy Session Field Mapping Properties lists the policy session field mapping properties.

Table 1. Policy Session Field Mapping Properties
Property	Definition
ID	The ID of the policy extension mapping. You cannot set or change this value.
Session Extension Container Name	The name of the container in which to save the policy extension data. This can be the MtxPolicySessionExtension container or a private MDC derived from it.
Source Container	The name of the incoming message MDC that contains the field to map to the policy extension field, for example, MtxDiamRoMsg. The Source Container must be one of the following MDCs or an extension of it: MtxChargingSessionExtension MtxMultiServiceData MtxPolicySessionExtension Mtx5GRequest Mtx5GMultiUnitUsageData The MtxMultiServiceData MDC allows administrators to populate session extension objects with fields from specific service contexts. The source field must be located in the MultiServiceList element (in the message MDC) for a service context.
Source Field	The name of the MDC field containing the usage data to copy to the audit data MDC. The value is the full path of the field in the MDC, separated by a dot (.). The first element in the array is used to get the value of the `event_field_name` field. For example, if a field is nested in an array, the syntax is `array_field_name.event_field_name`.
Destination Container	The name of the policy MDC in which the destination field exists. This MDC can be the MDC selected in the Session Extension Container Name field or a private MDC derived from it.
Destination Field	The name of the policy session field in which to store the source field value. The value is the full path of the field in the MDC, separated by dots (.).
Update Value	If selected, the value in the policy MDC is replaced with the latest value from the source field. If not selected, the first source field value copied to the session is used for the whole session.
