Cluster is the second-highest level of the organization hierarchy. The cluster is lower than the organization and each organization can contain one or more clusters. The cluster contains groups and units.

Stock and Test Clusters

Galooli's billing topics are regulated by its Stock and Test Clusters in front of its customers. Galooli sets up both clusters in each and every organization

Main Principles

• Units that have been moved to the "Stock" cluster will be automatically disconnected from the server without the user receiving any notification about them.

• The basis for the monthly billing is the units tree in the system. The customer pays for whatever is on the tree of units

• The customer is responsible for activating/de-activate units just by moving them into and out of the system tree

• Every system organization is billing in one currency only (no more than one currency for the same customer/organization). Supported currencies - USD, Euro, UGX, NGN, KEN

• Billing is per connected assets (units) & per customer’s services (reports, SMS, addresses, … - future)​

• A unit cannot be deleted from the organization tree if its billing type is LE (Leasing)

Organization Tree structure

Additional Clusters

For every organization, 2 clusters and 1 group are added at the bottom of the tree, automatically, with no ability to remove, available for managers and up only:

STOCK Cluster

1. Purposes of the cluster

   • Store units that are shipped

   • Store removed units from customers (move them from commercial clusters)

   • Standby stock before installations

2. The name of the cluster is not editable

3. No limitation on adding Groups and Units according to the regular authorization module

4. Units under the STOCK cluster are not chargeable (unless under commitment)

5. The server throws units’ transmissions under this cluster, so practically even if they transmit they will not be active in the system

SHIPPED (group under STOCK)

1. Purposes of the group

   • Make available all lists of units shipped to a customer prior to installation

   • Ease of use (instead of adding the units manually one by one)

   • Ensure units under commitment (Leasing etc.) shall be billed even if not installed

2. Once shipping units or add drop shipping stock, our admin will add the list of units and their commitment date (if any) to a file, with a group name. This file will automatically be uploaded to a new group in the STOCK cluster (needs to specify with R&D the format).

3. This group can be modified freely according to user authorization

TEST Cluster

1. Purposes of the cluster

   • Test units before installations

   •   Units for POCs

   • Temporarily removed

2. The name of the cluster is not editable

3. No limitation on adding groups according to the regular authorization module

4. Limited amount of units - 20 (Default)

5. Units under the TEST cluster are not chargeable (unless under commitment)
