Report Categories Other Reports


What type of information can administrators view from pulling a report within Other Reports category?

Administrators who want all the most detailed data available for a specific billing period should pull the All Data Export Service Summary report. This report encompasses a majority of the available data elements that Premier eBill provides. For an itemized report of all equipment costs by wireless number (including tax, shipping and handling, unit charges), the Equipment Detail report will provide the most comprehensive data. For orders placed during the bill period that are charged to the monthly invoice, the OtherEquipment Detail report displays a description of each piece of equipment in the transaction. Premier eBill does not offer an inventory report that provides a list of all current equipment details.

Report Categories Remittance Detail


What type of information can administrators view from pulling a report within Remittance Detail category?

Company administrators can pull the FAN Remit Detail Current Charges report to view the foundation account level total charges by category, and it will always match the Foundation Account Remittance Form.
For a listing of detail items which sum up the Total NBS Charges & Credits or the Adjustments on the foundation account Remittance Form, company administrators can pull the NBS Corporate Charges & Credit report respectively.

The FAN Detail Current Charges report is an excellent break out of the total charges for the entire foundation account by charge category like Monthly Access Charges or Airtime Charges, etc.

Report Categories Remittance Detail (cont.)


What type of information can administrators view from pulling a report within Remittance Detail category?

Reporting foundation accounts are not likely to have foundation account level charges through a Foundation Account Remittance form. Bills are paid at the billing account level but additional charges such as CD re-burns may be applied at the foundation account level. In this case, the Invoice reports in the Bill Analysis section can provide detail on charges. Billing foundation accounts are billed on the foundation account level so the FAN Remit Detail Current Charges is the proper amount to pay. All credits or charges on the billing account or wireless number level are consolidated with other billing accounts under the same foundation account.

Getting the Most from Your Reports


Depending on the specific information you need to manage your account, a combination of Bill Analysis Reports may be needed to provide the deepest level of detail and be able to account for all charges on the Remittance Slip. Provided below are two separate suggestions to help find the specific information needed in relation to your Remittance Slip: 1. Use the All Data Export Service Summary (ADE-SS) report for ALL charges on the wireless number and billing account level. Ensure any columns you want and are available to add to the report are included (additional columns must be added within the Report Parameters - Columns Tab). To help further detail the specific summary charges, administrators can pull the ADE-SS report AND the following report for detail charge breakdown.
Supplemental Report for a detail breakdown Associated data charges within ADE-SS report Billing Account Other Charges & Credits Service Level Other Charges & Credit
