Reporting improvements

  • The statistics menu will only contain the new Qliksense reports. The sub reports will be accessible directly via a new sub menu.

    • New aggregated report for the amount of SIMs per customer for resellers.

  • Out phasing old reports. The old reports will no longer be updated with new data. The new Qliksense reports also contain all information, so there will be no 2 reports for the same data. As from the next releases (4.11, 4.12) we will start removing the old reports.

    • The old reports are grouped into the new reports menu.

Network status

  • New Network Status. Today you can see if an endpoint is connected or not connected. We will add 3 new status for the endpoint.

    • endpoint throttled state

      • This new network status will indicate that the device is attached -and hence reachable via SMS- but has no data session.

Notifications

  • New msisdn, iccid, imsi parameters. They cab be added as parameters to the configuration list related to the notifications, so when users can configure the notifications with these parameters.

Events

  • The“errorCode” field will be added in the mobility events and will consist of either a two digits (decimal) integer or 4 depending on whether the error message corresponds to a MAP or a Diameter event.

  • A new field in the usage data stream called locationInfo. This field will show MCC/MNC in 6 digits -e.g. 206001. (for data and SMS)
