ABSTRACT:
A system generates service-oriented call-charge data for at least one service in a communication network, the system having in at least one first area (charge metering domain), network elements for charge metering—metering points—and in at least one second area (charging domain), network elements for charging—charging points. The system has a policy function which controls both the metering points and the charging points by using predefined rules.
