How do I limit the usage of a subscriber per month?

In the 'Quota usage' table there is an entry for each customer and carrier included in the database. Update the 'Quota' field of a record to set a limit for a subscriber. When the count in the 'This Month' field exceeds the quota, the subscriber (customer or carrier) is blocked. When a subscriber is blocked his corresponding entry in the 'Customers' or 'Carriers' table has the field 'Blocked' set to '1'. To unblock a subscriber simply update this field with a '0'.

How do I set up a block of DID numbers?

First make a new entry in the 'Profiles' table with the 'Carrier' field set to 'DIDRANGE', and link it to a rate in the 'Rates' table specifying the range of numbers you own. Then you can associate a customer with a number within this range in 'DIDclients'. A more detailed explanation can be found here.

How can I set up customer profiles with prefix dialing?

In the 'Profiles' table, make as many entries as prefixes you want to set. The prefix is defined in the 'Tech_prefix' field and it must have two digits. Each profile should be linked to a different rate set by the 'Rate' field. To use a profile, the user should dial (prefix)#(called number). Note the rates linked to this profiles will only be available by dialing the prefix.
