FAQ
Questions we're often asked
Can Unity bill services from several networks on one invoice?
Yes. Convergent billing groups charges from multiple services and networks under the customer's account hierarchy.
How are new usage formats added?
Mediation is configured per source. New formats are added as part of integration work and tested against sample records before go-live.
Does Unity integrate with accounting systems?
Invoice and revenue data can be exported to finance and ERP systems. Specific connectors are confirmed per project.
