Overview

Additive discounts provide price reductions on subscriptions (normal and prepaid) and jobs. The discounts are additional to the rates granted to customers through price plans and can be applied by agents or automatically.

Additive discount functionality

Multiple discounts (expressed as amounts or percentages) can be applied simultaneously.
Auto apply discounts do not require an agent. They are applied during billing, subject to conditions.
Ad hoc discounts are selected by agents and are applied if conditions established in the additive discounts definition are met.
Ad hoc discounts carry less risk than auto apply discounts, as they can be set up to require approval by management personnel before billing.

Business definitions

Business definitions is used to create additive discounts applied to subscriptions and jobs. The discounts are either automatically applied during billing (auto apply) or selected and added by users (ad hoc).

The same discount definition configuration entity is used for subscriptions and jobs. Once the classification (subscription or job) is selected in the Data Entry page, the system displays the appropriate sections and fields. The manual describes each classification in a separate table.

Multiple discounts expressed as amounts are aggregated and deducted from the total billed amount.

Discounts expressed as percentages are applied in the order determined by user-defined levels, as the order affects the total discount amount.

Up to three discount levels (1-3) can be defined for ad hoc percentage discounts.

The percentage of auto apply discounts of the same level is summed and the total is applied.
Percentage discounts are applied in order of ascending level.
For discounts of the same level, discounts are applied in series.

Additive Discount Business Examples

Subscription related ad hoc discount definition

Company ZX Available Subscription Discounts

Scenario 1

Company ZX requires agents to have access to a selection of discounts to offer customers with serious complaints.

Discounts should:

Be monitored, i.e., confirmed by the customer center supervisor before being applied on a bill.
Not exceed €20.00 per month
Be offered to the same customer a maximum of three times per year.
Apply to the main service (not to additional services).
Be available until 31/12, as the business revises its business rules on a yearly basis.

Solution

Setting up an ad hoc subscription discount definition

A discount should be set up in the system with the settings and conditions below. The discount should only affect monthly subscribers (a separate one should be created for customers with a different billing frequency).

Amount /Amount Range	Validity		Duration		Number of Applied Discounts		Approval Settings	Criteria
Amount Range	Effective	Expiration	Effective From	Expires On	Period			Billing Term Criteria	Product Criteria
5 - 20 / month	01/01/20xx	31/12/20xx	Subscription service effective date	Fixed Date: 31/12/20xx	Specific Number: 3	1 year	Manual by Unit: Customer care managers	Billing Frequency: Monthly	Product Type: Subscription packages

Adding the discount on the subscription
Once the discount definition is available, the agent should select and add it to the subscription. The discount amount should be set to €20.00 and the main service selected before submitting the discount. The agent should then inform the manager that a discount approval is required.
Approving the discount
The manager should review the discount, decide whether to approve or cancel it, and inform the agent.
Applying the discount
Once the discount is approved, the agent will be able to preview and bill the discounted subscription.

Scenario 2

Customers are charged a service fee on installations. Installations can take up to two working weeks but can sometimes take longer (i.e., the technicians are unable to perform them on time). Customers that call and make a formal complaint are eligible for a 50% discount on the installation service fee. The customer center supervisor should confirm such discount before they are applied on the bill. The discount should only be available until 31/12 as the business revises its business rules on a yearly basis.

Agents should be able to add the discount on the job before billing it.

Solution

Setting up an ad hoc job discount definition

50%	1	01/01/20xx	31/12/20xx	Manual by Unit: Customer care managers	Included Segments: Jobs whose actual completion date > expected completion date	Product: Installation service fee

Adding the discount on the Job

The agent should remove any job products that should not be discounted.
Approving the discount
The manager should review the discount, decide whether to approve or cancel it, and inform the agent.
Applying the discount / Previewing discounts through Bill Preview

Scenario 3

Customers are charged a service fee on installations. Installations can take up to two working weeks but can sometimes take longer (i.e., the technicians are unable to perform them on time). Customers that call and make a formal complaint are eligible for a €20 discount on the installation service fee.
The discount should only be available until 31/12 as the business revises its business rules on a yearly basis.

Provided that the conditions are met, the discount should be applied on the job automatically.

Solution

Setting up an auto apply job discount definition
A discount should be set up in the system with the following settings and conditions. The discount should only affect monthly subscribers (a separate one should be created for customers with a different billing frequency).

Amount /Amount	Validity		Criteria
Amount	Effective	Expiration	Segments	Product Criteria
€20	01/01/20xx	31/12/20xx	Included Segments: Jobs whose actual completion date > expected completion date	Product: Installation service fee

- The actual completion date was greater than the expected date (set to 2 weeks from the order date)
- The job is included in the segment
- The 'Installation Service Fee' was added to the job as defined in the discount 'Product Criteria'.
The agent will be able to view the €20 discount applied on the job through 'Bill Preview' under the BILL JOB action.
