How it Works

The ability to send CHF addresses in "ChargingInformation" in SM policy create response is added to PCF. In the subsequent SM policy updates, the same address is sent to the SMF. Similarly, the ability to send charging decision attributes in the PCC rules is available in PCF.

The charging information includes primary and secondary CHF addresses. The charging decisions include the following attributes- chgId, meteringMethod, offline, online, ratingGroup, reportingLevel, serviceId, sponsorId, appSvcProvId, and afChargingIdentifier.

Note

The charging decisions are supported only for a table-driven PCC and dynamic PCC rules.
