In order to allow a Provider to make calls, we need to:

  1. Create a new User for it.
  2. Assign the Provider to this User.

NOTE: Provider cannot be assigned to Reseller and to Accountant.

How MOR handles balance for users that are also providers?

The provider's balance increases only when there is a call made through this provider. If the provider is assigned

to the user then, when the same provider is making a call, the user's balance - to which provider is assigned - decreases.

And there is no difference if you have a Provider billing add-on or not.
