Symptoms

Oracle Communications Network Charging and Control (OCNCC), all versions before 5.0.0.3.

In ACS Control Plan, using Time Remaining Node (TMRM) after Tariff Plan Override (TPO) or a Balance Cascade Override (BCO) feature nodes (FN), the TMRM node calculates time remaining based on the original tariff plan and/or balance cascade instead of the overriding one.

Through this document, the example used will illustrate this issue with balance cascade override node. However the exact same behavior was exhibited with the tariff plan override node.

Example minimalistic Control Plan exhibiting this issue :

Node configuration :

For further information about these Feature Nodes (FN), please refer to Network Charging and Control's documentation.

Changes

Implementation of a new service making use of Balance Cascade Override nodes or Tariff Plan override nodes that are placed in the control plan before a Time Remaining node.
