Usage records for Parlay X Call Notification over Parlay

Parlay X Call Notification over Parlay uses the Usage Record component Web service to record events in a application that sends Web service requests to the network mapper for the creating, registering, and reporting of network related events.

For accounting and billing purposes, each TWSS Web service implementation generates a service usage record that describes how the service was used. Service usage records are stored in relational table format. Each service usage record contains common event data that can be used to unique identify the service record, and that references a properties table containing application-specific attributes. This provides a uniform infrastructure for creating and storing service usage records.

Service usage records consist of general service usage information that may be generated at multiple points during service execution. An event type field is used to differentiate the different recording points. Each service implementation defines the event types (generation points), status codes, and service data attributes that are generated for storage in the service usage table.

Parlay X Call Notification over Parlay creates a service record by calling the Usage Record component Web service.
