What This Course Covers

Basic Use, Configuration, and Administration of BillerXpert 1.0

The main goal of this course is to teach you how to use and administer BillerXpert. In this course you will work with the BillerXpert "telco" telephone company front end billing application. You will also work with the BillerXpert administration interface. 

Data Loading

An important feature of BillerXpert is its data loading and integration capability. The product provides a number of methods for loading billing data, including manual and automated techniques.

Architecture and Organization

Here you will learn how the BillerXpert product is put together, and about the various components that comprise the online billing solution. This material is especially useful for developers who will be creating a customized billing solution.

Course Prerequisites


This course assumes you have the equivalent knowledge of the following....

Basic Knowledge of Billing Systems

You should be familiar with billing systems, their features and capabilities. Knowledge of the various technologies that currently support online billing systems is also useful to provide a frame of reference for understanding the BillerXpert product.

Basic Web-Based Skills

You should feel comfortable using a standard web browser such as Netscape's Navigator.  You should already know how and when to use navigational mechanisms built into all browsers such as the "Back" button and the "Go" menu.  You should know what a URL is and how to go to a specific web page given a particular web address. 

Note that the Navigation Frame at the top of all pages in this course is designed for use with Netscape's Navigator version 4.05 and beyond.

System Administration Experience

If you plan to install the BillerXpert in a working environment you should have substantial prior experience doing system administration tasks such as installing software, adding new users, trouble-shooting errors, etc.  On the other hand, if your primary expectation from this course is to get an overview of BillerXpert services you'll only need the basic web skills described above.

Java and HTML Programming

For developers who plan on creating a customized billing solution based on BillerXpert, the key skills are Java and HTML programming. BillerXpert is a Java application built with the Netscape Application Server, so prior experience with NAS is also very helpful.

System Requirements

Any Javascript-capable browser is all you need to complete this course.
