What is cron actions

Cron actions is MOR functionality which allows you to do some tasks at a specified time. Currently supported actions are these:

  • Change tariff (for users)
  • Change LCR (for users)
  • Change provider tariff (for providers)



Who can use this functionality

Important notes on billing

MOR takes the call price before the call and uses it to calculate the final price after the call is finished.

Example: User starts a call at 9:58 PM and is talking for 5 minutes, you have an action which changes tariff at 10:00 PM. When call will be finished MOR will bill user using older tariff. If user starts a call after tariff change - he will be charged using the new tariff assigned for him.
