You can use this field only for the month-based using interval base procedure in period control.

Definition

The indicator affects billing if time portions are calculated for the time slices based on the period control chosen.

  • 01 (month-based billing if schema step is in interval)

    Calculation of month-based time portions if a schema step deviates from the billing period, but still falls within the interval in the portion.

    Calculation of time portions to the day if a schema step is outside the interval.

  • 02 (month-based if step is in interval and identical to billing period)

    Calculation of month-based time portions if a schema step corresponds exactly to the billing period and it falls within the interval in the portion.

    Calculation of time portions to the day if a schema step deviates from the billing period or the billing period is outside the interval.

  • 03 (month-based if logical value is in interval)

    Calculation of month-based time portions if a logical value of a schema step falls within the interval. Calculation of time portions to the day if a logical value is outside the interval.

    An example of a logical value is one of many devices for a variant that calculates the rental price. In contrast to the other two controls, the decision as to whether month-based billing is to be executed is based not on the length of the schema step, but on the billing days of the logical value. With the exception of devices, the control also affects the billing of reference values - since only for the billing of device rental prices can several logical values come into question at the same time.
