Azure Usage report
- Sheldon McKay
The Azure usage report lets you see Azure consumption and cost details for completed billing periods and the current, un-billed period. This helps you understand the detailed breakdown of Azure costs, what resources have incurred costs and allows onward charging to specific projects and cost centres.
Advania Marketplace generates a powerful export that enables you to see the quantity of each resource consumed, the rate, the resource name, resource group and any resource tags added.
Important Notes
The usage report combines data from 3 different Microsoft APIs. Due to Microsoft restrictions with the available data, the usage report may not match 100% with the invoice report.
