In order to use MOR successfully for dialing out and billing, some rules must be followed.

The best way to show this is by example.

User A dials a number, trying to reach User B.
The system then takes all Providers that belong to that LCR.
The system takes the Tariff of every Provider.
For every Provider system takes their Tariff.
From every Tariff (based on Prefix), the Rate is taken.
If the LCR type is 'Price', then all the Providers are sorted to identify the Provider with the lowest Rate to that Destination. This Provider becomes the first Provider.
Using the first Provider, the system tries to dial the number.
If the call is successful, the system does the billing and finishes the session.
If the call is unsuccessful, the system tries to dial the next Provider.
The system goes on calling until the call is successful or no Providers are left.
When the call ends, the system bills it.

This example provides only a basic illustration of how the billing system works. The whole process in MOR is much more complex.
