Different status of Telecom Billing Life cycle

Telecom Billing Life cycle Status:
Billing solution provides a service lifecycle model and the management of subscriptions (MSISDNs) within that life cycle
The following lifecycle states used in the solution and a MSISDN will always be in one of these states:
•Pre-Active – The subscription state where the MSISDN is provisioned through provisioning system but is not yet “Active”
•Active – The MSISDN state while the account balance is greater than the “active balance threshold” and neither the Active or Life Time timers have expired. Switch will allow subscribers to originate events (voice calls, send SMS-MO, MMS, receive SMS-MT etc) in this state (assuming sufficient balance etc to rate the event). A recharge will typically move the subscriber to this state from the Pre-Active, Insufficient Funds or Deactive states. The “active balance threshold” is normally set to zero.balance’ to make calls.
•Inactive – The subscription state when the account balance is less than or equal to zero (due to subscriber or customer care activity) but neither the Active nor Life time timers have expired. The subscriber can only originate calls to the IVR, or CSRs. For example the subscriber has not used all of their active time since the last recharge (e.g. still 20 days left) but they have zero balance.
•Deactive – The subscription state when the Active timer but not the Lifetime timer has expired. The subscriber can only originate calls to the IVR, or CSRs. For example, the subscriber has used all of their active time (e.g. more than 186 days). Once the subscriber performs a recharge they will move back to the Active state and the active time will start again.
•Expired – The subscription state when the Lifetime timer has expired. Subscribers will exist indefinitely in this state on the network switch until a request is received from the csr to erase the subscriber or Reactivate the account (which will change the state from “disconnected” to “Deactive”). For example, more than 372 days have passed since the subscriber’s last successful recharge.
