Excerpt

Our platform collects in daily basis the Azure usage data using Azure Resource Usage API. These data are accessible from the customer in subscription details page in Storefront.
 

For a customer / reseller to view the consumption of his Azure subscriptions, he must login in CSP's Storefront and to open the subscription details page from the Billing > Subscriptions menu.

In the details page there is the section Usage Records where the customer can see the usage records for the subscription.

 

The usage records are grouped by the resources groups the customer defined in Azure portal. For each usage record, we display the following information:

  • Resource Name (as defined by user in Azure portal) - Name (as defined by Azure)
    The "Name (as defined by Azure)" is not displayed when the Meter Category or Sub Category is Cloud Services, Networking - Basic Application Gateway, Networking - Public IP Addresses and Virtual Machines
  • Resource Meter Category
  • Resource Meter Subcategory
  • Usage for the current billing cycle until the last update
  • Price for the displayed Usage

How many hours / minutes before these usager records were collected is displayed in Updated field. If you want the usage records to be collected sooner, you can change this by following the instruction explained in page Setting how often Azure Usage Records are Collected
