Recommended Bill Run Process

Recommended Bill Run Process

In this section, we’re going to work through a ‘recommended’ bill run process. We highly recommend that you take this approach and modify it your business, after all - every Telco business is different. This is just a ‘recommended’ process, and should be used to supplement your own internal process for handling bill runs
