The line items of a quote are grouped by charge event. Each of these groups is called a quote line group. A quote would have at least one quote line group. Let's look at an example.
Consider the following:
- A monthly plan A for $500 per month.
- A non-recurring addon B for $50. Now consider a quote that is created for 3 billing cycles of the plan with the addon applied immediately. This quote would be associated with a list of quote line groups: one for each charge event as shown below:
Quote Line group 1
Plan A: $500
Addon B: $50
Total: $550
Quote Line group 2
Plan A: $500
Total: $500
Quote Line group 3
Plan A: $500
Total: $500
