Open Storefront > Azure Usage when your MSP has enabled Pax8 and made Azure usage available to you. This view reports imported usage; it does not provision resources, change Azure settings, or stop spending.

​
Find usage records

  1. Check the company scope.
  2. Use Month to choose from the available months. The initial view covers recent months, starting two months before the current month.
  3. Use the Resource Group text filter to narrow the results. A Company filter is also available in the global view.
  4. Review the month, company when shown, and resource group. Use pagination for additional rows.
  5. Select a row or its View Details action to request usage line items when available.
If line details fail to load, keep the summary record and ask your MSP to check the usage connection. A summary row does not guarantee that the provider can return its underlying lines.

​
Read available line items

The Usage Line Items dialog identifies the month and resource group. Available lines include the product, date, quantity, and unit of measure. Read the unit before comparing quantities: different resource types are not necessarily measured in the same units. MSP users with the required management permission can see cost and price fields that are hidden from Company readers. Missing amounts or hidden columns do not establish zero cost. This view does not replace your MSP’s invoice or the provider’s billing statement.

​
Understand the scope of totals

Company and resource-group summary cards describe the loaded company scope and recent period. Table filters do not necessarily recalculate these summary cards. MSP cost summaries can also use a different aggregation from the rows currently visible. Keep currencies separate and verify the underlying provider statement before reconciling charges. Recent usage and billing adjustments may not appear until the provider supplies updated data.

This is a reporting view. Ask your MSP to make changes through the appropriate Azure administration workflow.
Cost and price fields are restricted by Storefront management permission. Company readers can have usage access without those fields.

No. Check the month, company scope, filters, load errors, source synchronization, and permissions.
The current Azure Usage table does not provide a CSV export action. Ask your MSP for the appropriate provider report.
