# Optional XML Report for Account and Service New Charge Summary

This optional report provides a summary of new charges for account-level, and both wireline and wireless services. This is to make invoices easier to read, and save readers from having to manually add the charges to verify if the total monthly charge is correct.

## Setup

To use this functionality, setup is required in both Admin Console and Configuration Console.

- In Admin Console the *Account and Service New Charge Summary* XML report must be enabled.
- In Config Console the specific Product Catalog group ID(s) need to be entered in a comma separated list on the Account/Service New Charge Summary Catalog Groups property on the XML Invoice General Configuration page.

Both of these settings are not available to CostGuard users and must be configured by an authorized IDI associate.

### Enabling the Report in Admin Console

The *Account and Service New Charge Summary* XML report must be enabled in Admin Console. The path for this setting is:

*Business Rules > Local Services > RateBill > server_RateBill > Invoice Formats…>OptionalReports*

### Configure Product Catalog Groups in Config Console

Prior to using the new report, the product catalog group(s) to be summarized for bundled charges must be specified in a new Config Console property (by an authorized IDI associate). The specific product catalog group ID(s) need to be entered in a comma-separated list on the *XML Invoice General Configuration page* in Config Console. The path to this setting is:

*Local Services > Rate Bill > … > XML Invoice GeneralConfiguration*

The new property is labeled: Account/Service New Charge Summary Catalog Groups
