Category: (1) TAM Application Type

Application Identifier: 5.2

Maturity Level: 4

Overview

Transactional Document Production applications can be used in the telecommunications activities that require bills, invoices, letters and statements to be created for subscribers. It can be deployed by any organization that provides these services.

Transactional Document Production applications can process numeric, text and image content into print-ready and web-ready streams that can be reproduced using a predefined template on a variety of media. For instance, telecommunications companies can process data from a billing system into standard industry print streams to produce paper bills.

Functionality

A Transactional Document Production system has the following features:

  • Transactional Document Formatter – used to develop a transactional document such as a bill or letter by specifying the format template, the data input source specification, and the associated runtime rules that ties the data input to the format template.

  • Transactional Document Generator - processes extract files provided by other modules (typically Billing) to produce an intermediate data format.

  • Document Archiving – used to store compressed transactional document for future retrieval e.g. by customer care, self care or reprint.

  • Document Delivery – This is the final runtime executable that creates the desired print, web, PDF, XML or ASCII print files from the document production engine.
