Yep, I'm working with older version.

Doesn't have that customizations but I can share how I manage new requirement:

I would populate process "master data" based on requirements I received from customer:

- define which transactions should be billed based on partner settlement

- define reasons (again based on collected customer requirements)

- assign reasons to categories

- define settlement rules

Than I would simulate invoicing for dozens of times to identify standard results and behavior of process and if it matches customer requirements.

Based on that I would define specifications for adjustment of partner settlement if needed and again execute simulation for dozens of time to familiarize with adjustments results.

It's not much I know...

Thanks for response...it's the way also I am thinking .. but one thing confuse me that we use external rating system  and only BP/ CA are used in our project..should I re-group the billing item during the interface feed business data to CI ? or later process 。。 

good day!

If your billing/invoicing items aren't based on Transactions you can select in step

- define which transactions should be billed based on partner settlement

you should rearange grouping of billable items in billing documents, maybe also and invoicing grouping variants too.

If hold the Transactions which belong to Partner settlement group to periodic process, does the due date will be impact ? should be original posted date from feed system ?

Thanks!

I don't know.

Based on some general idea of how Partner settlements should be managed I think original due date should be used in that invoice.

The only way to be sure is to simulate it.
