The Zuora Usage File Forwarder is used to send usage data in file format to Zuora Billing using the Zuora Post Usage API or with the Active Rating Post Usage API. You map fields from a source to specific target fields. Zuora Usage File Forwarder then compiles the fields into a comma-separated value (.csv) file or files to be sent downstream.
You can configure this function in the following settings.
Environment to select the Zuora environment.
Authentication to select a Zuora credential from Secrets Wallet.
Entity to specify the name of the entity if you have the Zuora Multi-entity feature enabled.
Request to enable Active Rating. The configuration fields will be different if you have selected the Use Active Rating check box described below.
File information
