Goal

On Oracle Communications Billing and Revenue Management version 7.5.0.0.0, in Pipeline Manager, the billing time discount is not applied to FROM_ACCOUNT after the subscription transfer but billing time discount is applied to TO_ACCOUNT.

It is expected that the discount is applied to the FROM_ACCOUNT as well as the TO_ACCOUNT.

This can be reproduced in the the following scenario:

1. Have a Mobile Directory Number (MDN) associated to an account (Account_A) and bill cycle 1st to 1st of every month.
2. The user makes usage/cycle fee charges say $100.  Aggregate this into a non-currency resource.
3. On the 15th, the user is moved (i.e. Subscription transfer) to Account_B.
4. Next the user makes usage/cycle fee charges totaling around $200 before the 1st.
5. On the 1st, during bill run, the expectation is to apply billing time discount for Account_A based on the $100 (10% discount) so a total $10 discount.  Currently this is NOT working as expected.
6. The billing time discount should also apply for Account_B based on the $200, i.e. $20 discount (10%).  This currently works as expected.
