Tool for Exporting the Usage Records for Legacy Azure Subscriptions

Having historic data and information of a subscription's usage records, for monitoring, comparison, or audit purposes, is essential. For this reason, we have introduced a reporting tool that helps the BSS user to view and export a legacy Azure subscription’s usage records along with the costs of the previous six billing cycles.

To tool is located in Setup tools section and it’s called “Subscription's Usage Records”. The tool runs ad-hoc and returns the usage records for a specific legacy Azure subscription at a specific billing period.

Product Mix Widget Improvements

In this release we have introduced the following changes:

  1. The product mix widget now displays the top 10 categories. We believe that this will increase its usability since the user will be able to see data for the top selling categories. The rest categories are grouped in the “other” generic category.

  2. When you mouse over a category, you can now see the actual invoiced amount for the selected time period
