In the Charge Component screen you can define new charge codes. To categorize the charge components into different account heads, each charge component is mapped to different account codes.
You can map each charge component to an open item bin to form open item bin wise group of charge components.
This screen also allows you to modify the existing charge component details.
To define a charge component:
On the System Administration module, click Billing, and then click Charge Component.
Enter charge component and charge description in the respective fields.
Select component type from the given drop-down. The charge component can be of three different types namely, Recurring, Non-recurring, and Usage Based. For usage based services, the component type must be Usage Based.
Select the level of hierarchy like none, customer, contract, or plan from the hierarchy drop-down.
Select Account Code from the drop-down and map the charge component with the corresponding account head.
Select Open Item Bin from the drop-down to map the charge component with the corresponding open item bin to form a charge group.
Note: It is mandatory to map each charge component with an open item bin. By default each newly created charge component is mapped to system generated 'Default Bin'.
