Conditional Billing Activation — Starts billing only when a defined trigger fires — go-live, delivery confirmation, first usage — instead of at contract signature. It sits between fulfillment callbacks and the rating engine, ensuring customers are never charged for capacity they cannot yet use.
Conditional Billing Activation lives in the Fulfill & Activate phase of Fulfill & Bill — the stage where you activate what was sold, meter what's used, bill it right. In the corpus tool index this phase maps to the Entitlements and Billingcategories.
