发明名称 Method and system for improving the billing of multiple customer services
摘要 A method and system are provided for improving the billing of multiple customer services. The method includes determining a first billing interval for a first customer service, determining a different billing interval for an additional customer service, determining a periodic billing charge for the first billing interval, determining a periodic billing charge for the additional billing interval, and generating a bill at the end of the first billing interval including a total billing charge. The total billing charge includes the periodic billing charges for the first billing interval and the additional billing interval. The additional billing interval may be based on an installation date of the additional customer service, a predetermined time period, or a preexisting billing interval. If the additional billing interval is based on the installation date, then partial month charges may be avoided for newly added customer services. If additional billing interval is based on the preexisting billing interval, then partial month charges may be avoided for customer services converted to a single billing system.
