Converting your Rates to CDR2Cloud Format
CDR2Cloud allows you to import rates from a text file into any Rate table you choose. The source file containing the rates must be in a very specific format that CDR2Cloud will understand.
This source file must contain exactly 20 tab delimited columns as shown below:
| pattern | description | bill_period_initial_len | bill_period_incremental_len | day_start | day_initial_charge | day_increment_charge | eve_start | eve_initial_charge | eve_increment_charge | night_start | night_initial_charge | night_increment_charge | weekend_initial_charge | weekend_increment_charge | blocked | connectionCharge | compensation | maximum | markup |

The easiest way to convert your rates into the CDR2Cloud Tab delimited format is to do the following:
- Create a Rate Table in CDR2Cloud
- Add 2 or 3 rates to the Rate Table
- Export the Rate Table to a text file (see the Rate Table - Export topic)
- Open the file with Excel. Don't double click the file. Open Excel first, then do "file open" to open the text file. Choose TAB delimited
- Update the file with your rates
- Save the file as TAB delimited
- Import the file into your CDR2Cloud Rate Table (see below).
