Section 20:10:28:109 - End user service order processing - Included expenses - Subcategories - Assignment of subcategories

End user service order processing includes expenses related to the receipt and processing of end users' orders for service and inquiries concerning service. This subcategory does not include any service order processing expenses for services provided to the interexchange carriers.

Based on the relative number of actual contacts which are weighted, if appropriate, to reflect differences in the average work time per contact, end user service order processing expenses are first segregated into the subcategories of local service order processing, directory advertising, intrastate private line and special access, and other intrastate message toll including WATS. These subcategories are assigned as follows:

(1) Local service order processing expense, primarily local telephone service orders, is assigned to other services;

(2) Intrastate presubscription service order processing expenses are assigned to the intrastate toll jurisdiction;

(3) Directory advertising service order processing expense is assigned to other services;

(4) Intrastate private line and special access service order processing expense is assigned to toll and other services based on use;

(5) Other intrastate message toll including WATS service order processing expense is assigned to toll services.
