Release 2021-09-20

Added contingent based options (stair step pricing) in our plans. The contingent model allows to specify fixed prices for different steps. For example parking a car will charge for each started hour. If one hour costs 0.50€ and the first hour is free, parking for 2:43h will cost 1.00€, parking for 3:15h will cost 1.50€. This can now be billed with the contingent model.

Added tier based options in our plans. Tiered prices allows to specify different unit prices per tier, where all previous tiers have to be filled. For example charging a car can cost 0.17€/kWh for the first 100 kWh and 0.13€/kWh afterwards. Charging 400kWh will cost with the tier based model (100 x 0.17€)+(300 x 0.13€) = 56€.

Added volume based options in our plans. Volume prices allow to specfiy different unit prices per tier, where only the tier of the usage is used in the calculation of the final price. For example charging a car can cost 0.17€/kWh for up to 100 kWh, 0.13€/kWh for 100 - 500 kWh and 0.10€/kWh for 500+ kWh. Charging 400kWh will cost with the volume based model 400 x 0.13€.

Enabled the process to directly charge an end customers payment account after a payment transaction has been made. Therefore it is now possible to add one or multiple payment accounts to a debtor. The payment processes will now be automatically processed and can be viewed in our Webportal. Also if a payment process fails it will be shown in our Webportal and can be re-triggered manually.

Enabled the automatic re-processing of billable items within a contract that could not be processed due to a technical error, for example when a server timed out.

Added usage based properties to our usages to display additional information of the given usage on the invoice document.

Enabled the possibility to terminate a contract extraordinary outside of contract terms and notice period.
