PRLog (Press Release) – Mar 22, 2011 – Telecom billing provider WebCDR (formerly known as Switch Management Corp.) today reached a milestone of supporting 50 different wholesale carrier ratesheets with its Vendor Ratesheet Intake, a standard component of its battery rc helicopter award-winning WebCDR Billing service. Cable & Wireless Worldwide was the 50th format, with more formats being added weekly on an as-requested basis from the WebCDR Billing user base.
Vendor Ratesheet Intake was added to WebCDR Billing in 2010. It enables xls-formatted carrier ratesheets to be uploaded into WebCDR's outbound rate tables without alteration or reformatting; a vast improvement over the usual manual method which is both time-consuming and error-prone. Even complex multi-tab ratesheets with relevant data buried deep in headers and footers are properly handled, making it an invaluable tool for wholesale carriers that need the ability to rapidly explore new termination offers.
Earl Ruby, WebCDR's director of engineering, explains that Vendor Ratesheet Intake was more than a year in the making and utilizes ground-breaking data sensing and parsing algorithms to enable rapid implementation of new formats. Says Ruby, "Vendor Ratesheet Intake knows if the vendor's rates are in U.S. Dollars, Euros, or some other currency, and whether or not specific time zones apply to the rates. It even handles peak/off-peak rates which are typically the most complex. We have customers that upload 20 to 30 ratesheets per week from different carriers and WebCDR accepts them all. It can even accept rates based on North American OCN/LATA codes." Earl is looking forward to the 100th supported ratesheet format, a milestone he estimates his team will reach by mid-year.
Raj Guru, a manager at Callx Telecom, says "Basically, WebCDR makes the rate intake process extremely simple and easy to understand. We extensively use it to load rate sheets from at least 20-25 different vendors with various formats."
Ian MacIver, CEO of UK mobile operator Greenfone, says, "We use WebCDR for our wholesale part of our business. We receive many updated rate sheets from our suppliers each week. The Vendor rate sheet Intake feature is key to Greenfone's ability to keep up with the changes in different suppliers rates."
