event

An occurrence related to activities involving a specific service type. Events are received by the MATRIXX Charging Application and can be tracked and rated. They are generated during user-to-user communications, user-to-network communications, inter-network communications (for example, call transferring), mobility (for example, roaming), and other network-related activities that operators can charge for. Events define additional attributes of a service that are unique to that event. For example, a voice service can include an event that tracks voice mail usage and an event that has long distance attributes defined by an A number and B number pair.
