Vodia Networks, Inc., a provider of unified cloud communications solutions to enterprises, contact centers, and managed service providers (MSPs), is pleased to announce Vodia Billing, Version 1.0.0-beta, a standalone billing middleware for Vodia PBX fleets.
MSP billing needs to answer three important questions: What is the amount of each invoice? Who owes the company payment? What invoices have been paid? Vodia Billing has been developed to answer and resolve these questions quickly, correctly, and seamlessly.
Vodia Billing turns raw call data into invoices
Vodia Billing ingests CDRs, rates calls against rate sheets, and handles recurring charges based on PBX entities such as extensions, auto attendants, call queues, maximum concurrent trunk calls, etc., as well as hardware one-off charges and taxes. Once this information has been processed, Vodia Billing issues and delivers invoices, handing them off to Xero or QuickBooks Online (if connected). Vodia billing sits beside the PBX and turns raw call records into accounting entries, fraud alerts, and invoices.
Vodia Billing and Vodia Analytics
Vodia Billing is a companion product to Vodia Analytics, which transforms PBX call data into clear, actionable insights with real-time dashboards, detailed call records, and AI-powered analysis. Vodia Billing has been built with the same architecture and the same interface conventions as Vodia Analytics, but with a separate server and a separate database:
- Ingests CDRs from one or more Vodia PBX systems over the PBX’s own webcdr webhook; recovers missed days from archive CSV files.
- Rates outbound calls against your rate sheets, with per-destination charge types, connect fees, billing increments, minimum durations, and included-minute allowances.
- Counts recurring items from daily PBX snapshots: extensions, hunt groups, auto attendants, queues, DIDs, and concurrent-call peaks.
- Computes tax in per-bucket components, or hands tax computation to QuickBooks Online (must be connected).
- Produces invoices with gapless fleet-wide numbering, frozen detail, twelve languages, per-tenant branding, and revocable share links.
- Delivers by email with a call-detail CSV attached, and by CSV over SFTP, HTTP, or email to a payment system.
- Hands off to accounting, Xero or QuickBooks Online, with customer mapping, payment sync back, and per-invoice push state.
- Chases payment with configurable reminder schedules and overdue alerts.
- Watches for fraud with 20 detectors, optional automatic extension disable on the PBX, and per-tenant threshold overrides.
- Reports margin per tenant per month, split by charge basis, with loss-makers flagged (partner-only, never visible to customers).
Vodia Quick Start
Quick Start is the best way to test drive Vodia Billing: it goes from a bare server to a first draft invoice, with a worked example at each step.
Documentation
Vodia Billing and Quick Start documentation are available on the Vodia documentation website.
Vodia Billing is another step in the company’s journey to provide MSPs with everything they need to find and retain customers and grow their brands. The company also recently announced the new Vodia Partner Program and new Vodia Partner Portal, which give service providers, MSPs, system integrators, and technology partners a clearer way to grow their Vodia business.
