Telesens: T-CPM (Telesens Content Partner Management)

Depending on a delivery mode (type of transport), services can include SMS content, Voice-content, WAP content.

Functionality

The T-CPM system provides maintaining agreements with providers of content services, data processing of content traffic, carrying out settlings with partners and formation of output documents in the form of acts, accounts and references.
