40 - 80   11/ Products billed on ZCID summary billing

CR PM: Stecklein, Lynn
Description Of Change
In Qwest's eastern billing region we are normalizing the format to match the other regions for ZCID summary billed accounts. ZCID accounts are converting to the current RSID billing arrangement. ZCID accounts are fully billed on summary bills, whereas RSID accounts consist of a master summary bill invoice and individual sub-account invoices, reflecting detail at the sub-account level.

Proposed implementation date March 2004. Expect minor changes to EDI billing format that will require documentation updates to Qwest Billmate tech publication.

ZCID accounts are fully billed on summary bills, and the RSID accounts consist of a master summary bill invoice and individual sub-account invoices, reflecting detail at the sub-account level. Sue stated that the notification was distributed on January 9, 2004 and that the changes will appear on the Qwest website.

Beth Foster/Qwest stated that this information was included in the Draft Tech Specs that were sent on January 9, 2004 Liz Balvin/MCI asked if this change would impact EDI users only. Sue Kriebel/Qwest stated that we are not changing how we transmit and that we are only changing fields. Sue said that we are not changing the account structure and that there will be an invoice for each sub account. Sue said that this would impact those CLECs who subscribe to EDI. Bonnie Johnson/Eschelon asked if there were any ASCII impacts. Sue Kriebel/Qwest said that there is no impact to the ASCII output.
