The Offline-Charging AVP (AVP code 1278) is a grouped AVP, which is used to set the parameters required to control offline charging.

It has the following ABNF grammar:

Offline-Charging ::= < AVP Header:1278 >

[ Quota-Consumption-Time ]
[ Time-Quota-Mechanism ]

[ Envelope-Reporting ]

* [ Multiple-Services-Credit-Control ]

* [ AVP ]

At most one of Quota-Consumption-Time AVP or Time-Quota-Mechanism AVP shall be present, if individual instances are not included within the Multiple-Services-Credit-Control AVP.

The Multiple-Services-Credit-Control AVPs, if present, shall contain the Rating-Group AVP to identify the category, optionally one of Quota-Consumption-Time AVP and Time-Quota-Mechanism AVP, and optionally the Envelope-Reporting AVP.

Any values specified in the Offline-Charging AVP take precedence over the configured defaults. The values of the parameters specified at Multiple-Services-Credit-Control level take precedence over the values specified directly at Offline-Charging level. If neither Quota-Consumption-Time AVP nor Time-Quota-Mechanism AVP is included in the Multiple-Services-Credit-Control AVP, then the general reporting requirements dictated by the Quota-Consumption-Time AVP or Time-Quota-Mechanism AVP and Envelope-Reporting AVP directly within the Offline-Charging AVP shall apply.
