Certification procedure

The certification procedure is as follows:

When the provider template is uploaded in the system, the Certification level is None, regardless the value set in the XML file, because the provider has not been verified yet.

The cron script periodically run by VoipNow checks the vendor's (4PSA) database for certification information.

• If the provider is certified by the vendor, then the appropriate Certification level will be set and displayed in the interface (e.g. Silver).
• If not, then the provider will remain uncertified and the Certification column will continue to display None until further changes in the provider's status.

The vendor (4PSA) has a database with all the supported certified service providers that it is constantly updated.
