Subscription Costs in Azure Report

Prerequisite:

You need to have an Enterprise Agreement with Microsoft Azure to enable Subscription Costs in Azure reports.

Subscription Costs in Azure report is similar to Subscription Pricing report, but with details of costs actually billed by the resource provider (e.g., Microsoft Azure).

To view the Subscription Costs in Azure report navigate to the Governance ->Reports -> Subscription Costs in Azure area of the Management Console.

In this tabular view the rows are more detailed and provide information on individual Azure entities like Storage, Network, and Software.

All the like items are summarized to reduce the number of rows. For example, charges for an IP address are not repeated daily for a quarterly report, instead they are summarized into a single report (a single row).

Note Only like items are summarized. Distinct charges, for example the charges for compute and storage, are not combined.
