The functionalities specified for Service Based Architecture in clause 6 of TS 29.500 [299], may be supported. Any deviation from or special usage of the specified functionalities are described in this clause.

6.1.9.2 Extensibility Mechanisms

The information elements sent on the Nchf_ConvergedCharging API can be extensible with vendor-specific data.

The only JSON data types that can be extended, by defining additional members, are JSON objects; simple data types (and arrays of items of simple data types) cannot be extended in this way. The charging vendor-specific extensions use the extensibility mechanism defined in clause 6.6 of TS 29.500 [299].
