Setup

The Setup page provides a easy-to-use, interactive checklist for configuring Service Billing quickly.

Before you start using Service Billing, click each item in the lower panel to visit that page or dialog. A checkmark next to an item means you have selected that item at least once. It does not necessarily mean you have finished configuring that item.

Help links are provided for each item to guide you through your configuration.

If you would like to review general concepts before continuing, download a copy of the Service Billing quick start guide.
