Once a session ends and its transaction(s) are finalized, a CDR is generated as the sole billing-relevant object. It includes details about the session, costs incurred, and the calculation methods used.

 

🚀 Introducing the New Charge Detail Records Page

Spirii recently launched the new Charge Detail Records page in open beta. This feature streamlines charging and billing data into a single source of truth, offering a modernized user experience and an improved data structure. The page is designed to provide both charge point operators (CPOs) and eMobility service providers (eMSPs) with all the information they need for efficient operations.

Viewing Data: CPO vs. eMSP Perspectives

A charge detail record can be viewed from 2 angles: The charge point operator (CPO) angle displaying the data from the operator/owner of the charge point and the the eMobility service provider (eMSP) angle displaying the data from the drivers perspective.

Therefore, the charge detail record page contains 2 tables:

  • The My charging network (CPO) table containing all charging data from all chargers associated with the user’s account.
  • The My drivers (eMSP) table containing all charging data authorized by drivers (via branded app users, charge keys, etc.) associated with the user’s account.

This also means that if an operator’s user have charged on a charger in the operator’s own network, the CDR will be available in both tables for that operator.

 

Exporting charge detail records

Users can export all CDRs as a CSV file based on current filters and search parameters.

  1. Locate the Export Button: Click the Export button in the top-right corner.
  2. Confirm Export: Once you press Confirm, the export request will begin. For large datasets, this process may take a few minutes.
  3. Download the File: When ready, the export file will appear on the Exports page (accessible from the top-right menu). Click the Download button next to your file to retrieve it.

 

Customizing the view

The new page allows users to tailor their experience by adding or removing columns to match their specific use cases or screen sizes.

Click the Column Settings icon in the top-right corner of the table to access this feature.

 

FAQs

I still have access to the “charge records” page. What is the difference?

The Charge Records page is the existing solution. The new Charge Detail Records page, now in open beta, offers significant upgrades in structure, usability, and accuracy. Spirii plans to phase out the old page after gathering feedback during the beta period.

 

I can’t find my ongoing sessions in the table?

The Charge Detail Records page only displays completed charging sessions. Ongoing sessions will be addressed in a future solution.

 

Some charge records seem to be missing or are missing data?

The new page is in open beta, and certain use cases may not yet be fully supported. Spirii is actively working to address these gaps.

If your customer account has any sub-customers linked you might not be able to access CDRs for these sub-customers. Please refer to the existing "charge records" solution until we have fixed this gap.

 

What’s the difference between Spirii, Hubject, and OCPI?

The Auth. Network column shows the operator or provider name based on the table (CPO or eMSP) and the network through which the charging was facilitated:

  • Spirii Network: Internal Spirii transactions.
  • Hubject: Transactions handled via Hubject’s roaming protocol.
  • OCPI: Peer-to-peer roaming transactions under direct agreements with Spirii.

The main differences between these networks are transaction costs and invoicing speed.
