Overview

This node interacts with the Billing Booth One API to retrieve detailed previews of billing runs. It is useful for scenarios where users need to preview billing data before finalizing billing runs, such as verifying charges for specific customers or customer groups, filtering by billing periods, or excluding certain charge types. For example, a user can preview detailed billing information for a given billing period, including or excluding old unbilled charges, service charges, or call data records (CDRs).

Use Case Examples

1. Preview detailed billing run for a specific billing period to verify charges before invoicing.
2. Retrieve billing details for a customer group with specific filters like excluding service charges or including only certain categories.
3. Get a detailed preview of billing runs for selected customers within a custom date range for voice, data, and SMS usage.
