ApplyCharging
Overview
The ApplyCharging operation represents the receipt of an INAP ApplyCharging. The test instance will abort if any other inbound message is received.
This message is received by the IN Tester when it is simulating the role of a Service Switching Platform (SSP).
- Direction: INBOUND
- From: SCP (Application Under Test)
- To: SSP (IN Tester)
Attributes
The operation attributes are as follows.
Attribute | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
type
|
String |
inap.ssp_from_scp.ApplyCharging
|
label
|
String |
An optional label for this node if it is to be the target of a branch operation.
|
last_component
|
1 / 0
|
If 1 performs a test that this is the last component of a TCAP_END message.If 0 performs a test that this is not the last component of a TCAP_END message.(Default = do not perform any test). |
tcap_ac
|
null / TCAP alias / Hex String
|
Tests the received TCAP Application Context from the first inbound TCAP_CONTINUE / TCAP_END dialogue portion. If null tests that we did not receive a dialogue portion.(Default = do not perform any test). |
tcap_result
|
Integer |
Tests the received result value from the first inbound TCAP_CONTINUE / TCAP_END dialogue portion.If null tests that we did not receive a dialogue portion.(Default = do not perform any test). |
tcap_result_diagnostic_user
|
Integer |
Tests the received dialogue-service-user value from the first inbound TCAP_CONTINUE / TCAP_END dialogue portion.If null tests that we did not receive a dialogue portion, or that it did not contain a user result diagnostic.(Default = do not perform any test). |
tcap_result_diagnostic_provider
|
Integer |
Tests the received dialogue-service-provider value from the first inbound TCAP_CONTINUE / TCAP_END dialogue portion.If null tests that we did not receive a dialogue portion, or that it did not contain a provider result diagnostic.(Default = do not perform any test). |
variant
|
String |
camel , genband (or unspecified for generic default).
|
arguments
|
Object |
[Required] The structure of the INAP ApplyChargingArg we expect to receive. Expressions may be supplied within this structure. |

Arguments (All Variants)
The following inbound arguments are supported for all variants. Unless specifically indicated
otherwise, the actual received inbound arguments will be checked for each supplied “expected”

|
Binary String | Specify this parameter as a single byte binary value. |
.receivingSideID_hex
|
Hex String |
Alternatively specify a two-character hex encoding. Ignored if receivingSideID is defined.
