Manning Systems is a commercial software vendor that sells billing and other financial software to companies around the globe. Manning operates a centralized call center for customer support calls. Costs associated with use of the center are charged to the division with primary responsibility for the client. There are four geographical divisions: North America (NA), Central and South America (SA), Europe, and Asia-Pacific (APAC). The allocation is based on the length of time of calls made (Minutes).
