To clarify, many running ITSPs or even 'wholesale' shops do not have a clear understanding of what they need to do to make things work. If you cannot account for your minutes (inventory) then you either have the wrong accounting system or the wrong technologies feeding the data into your accounting system.
I cringe when someone tells me the loose a TON of money, either they are a fool and they and their money will soon part ways, or they are trying to make up for their lack of knowledge by repeating what they heard some switch guy say once.... Some applications require you to stay in the 'loop' (pun intended) and some applications work better with media traveling separate paths. It just irks me when someone makes a general statement like 'I loose a TON of Money' without understanding the process or what needs to be done to ensure revenues.
