Services details workflow
- Check that all your charges are matched against customers, some common causes of charges not being matched against customers are:
- The CLI of the charges has not been associated to one of your customers.
- The service file has corrupted data, this commonly occurs when the file has been opened and saved within Excel, which, by default, strips out leading zeroes from all numerical data.
- (Optional) If you had to amend your customer CLIs, click the Analyse button to get Billingbooth to check through the service file again. If you had to update the service file, it's best to delete this service file upload and start the process again.
