=How Monitorings Addon work?=
Monitoring Addon crawls the MOR database and counts  user's call price sum over specified period. If user's call price sum over specified period will be higher or lower than the amount specified in monitoring - an action will be taken. Possible action are:
* Only notify admin (no action is taken against user)
* Block user (user is automatically blocked, no notification is sent to admin)
* Block user and send notification for admin
You can create differently configured monitorings for:
* All users
* Postpaid users
* Prepaid users
* 1 user (separate monitorings for each user, also called personal monitorings)
Also it is possible to create 2 or more monitorings for each group, for example:
* First monitoring only reports admin about quickly increasing sum, let's say 50 Euro
* If an administrator takes no action and someone tries to abuse the system when call sum for that user reaches for example 100 Euro the second monitoring can block that user
System's administrator can turn on monitorings for resellers. If they are off, resellers' users are under the terms set by administrator.
<br>
==Monitorings for resellers==
As it is mentioned above, administrator can turn on monitorings for resellers. If you want to do it go to '''ADDONS''' block -> '''Resellers''' -> '''Reseller permissions'''. Choose or create a group and click the [[File:Edit.png]]'''Edit''' icon. You will see this window:
[[File:monitorings_resellers.png]]
Choose whether you want to permit reading writing or to keep monitorings for resellers disabled (this is default).

==Global Monitoring==
Global Monitoring will be applied to all users which meet the requirements (this will be explained later)
1. Go to ''' ADDONS''' section -> '''Monitorings'''.<br><br>[[File:Monitorings_path.png]]<br><br>
2. Select the desired options for new global Monitoring:<br><br>[[File:Monitorings_global_basic.png]]<br><br>
*'''Period''' - this option let's you specify how often the monitoring must run and check all users balance.
*'''Amount''' - this option let's you specify the amount of money and whether it is maximum limit or minimum call price limit. When user's balance drops to or reachs the amount you specified an action will be taken against him depending on other parameters.
*'''Block user''' - if this option is set to '''Block''' - user will be blocked. He will not be able to make any calls.
*'''Send Email to Admin''' - here you may choose to be informed about the action by email.
*'''User type''' - this options specifies a user group an action must be taken against.
** All - Monitoring will be applied to All users
** Postpaid - Monitoring will be applied to Postpaid users
** Prepaid -Monitoring will be applied to Prepaid users
3. Press the '''"Create"''' button to create the Monitoring
===Additional Notes===
*You can create as many Monitorings for any group as you want. For example you can create 2 monitorings for Postpaid users:
**1 monitoring could just inform the administrator about the high user's balance (in this case select these options: enter the amount and choose '''Increases more''', choose '''Do not block''', choose '''Send''', choose '''Postpaid''')
**2 monitoring could block the user with high balance if the administrator is sleeping and didn't saw the warning email (in this case enter a bigger amount than in the first monitoring and choose '''Increases more''', choose '''Block''', choose '''Send''', choose User type: '''Postpaid''')
**3 monitoring could inform the administrator that some users stoped calling for some reason, maybe because of some technical problems, that otherwise would not be noticed so quickly (in this case enter some amount and choose '''Drops bellow''', choose '''Do not block''', choose '''Send''', choose User type: '''Postpaid''')
*'''Do not add too much monitorings, because this functionality is database intensive. A separate database server could be dedicated for monitorings.'''<br><br>

In MOR it is also possible to monitor if users call price sum is under some certain certain sum. This is useful to detect that something is wrong with user's settings, providers assigned to him, etc.. Go to ''' ADDONS''' -> '''Monitorings''' if you want to make a monitoring for users' group or ''' SETTINGS -> Users''' if you want to make a monitoring for single users. You will see this window:

In some situations you might need to disable global monitorings for some users leaving only personal monitorings. You can do that by navigating to [[User_Details|user settings]] and enabling the marked setting:
<br><br>
