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

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.
