Hi, MMS User Account Statistics not tallying with MMS LOG. After some testing have found that said stats only incremented when message was originated by MMS user not when MMS terminated. I hope this issue can be resolved soon as it really makes hard to get counts from the LOG files always. Also I would suggest that the Sent, Received and Queued messages stats should be in "User Account Statistics" area as it make life hell easier to understand the message flowing. PS: Also observed that message stats get incremented whenever message was submitted and stored in the MMSC by an email user. Please note that here message is in queue and not actually delivered to recipient. Thanks and regards, Babrus | |||

Hi Babrus, That is the way that those statistics were designed to work. They tally the number of messages sent by the user. They do not tally messages received. (Although messages received via e-mail do increase this counter. The reason for this is because in most charging models, the sender pays for the MMS message to be sent ... except that there is no way to charge for e-mail to MMS, so in this case the receiver would normally be charged. You can set NoChargeMMSToEmail=Yes under the [MMSC] header of MMSC.INI to stop e-mail to MMS messages being added to this counter.) I agree that we could benefit from more statistics. But for billing purposes, I would always suggest relying on the log files or HTTP accounting callbacks. -bn | |||

What type of stats (sent,received and queued exactly contain in command "mmsuser -quotareport" response? I hope this command will contain a little more detail. -Babrus | |||

Babrus, The command line MMSUSER utility reports the same statistics that are displayed in the user interface. (no additional detail) -bn | |||

I can't answer that yet. This particular area is still under review. The current implementation of these statistics is a performance bottleneck on large systems. This area has been reworked for NowSMS 2006, so that the performance bottleneck is gone. With the performance issues resolved, this does allow us flexiblity to expand the functionality (whereas previously we could not expand the functionality because it would have too much of a performance impact). -bn | |||
