Request/Service Type
|
|
|
|
The Request Type (REQTYP) identifies the type of service (TOS) being requested by the CLEC. The Request Type is a two position alpha field on the Local Service Request (LSR). The first character specifies the type of service and the second character determines the status. For example, the Request Type for a Centrex line is PB, where the P is for Centrex, and B is for firm order.
The type of service is placed on the LSR form. The TOS is four-character fields identifying the End Users account type as business, residential or government. It also identifies the product, class and characterization of the product being ordered. It is important for the CLEC to place the correct TOS on the LSR, or the order will not be provisioned correctly.
