How to read the SaaS Service Usage Metrics Report

The report provides a snapshot of your current usage compared to your contractual entitlement and also describes
some best practices when managing your subscriptions.

Usage metrics are organized into tables for three licensing metrics:

 Hosted Named User

 Hosted Employee

 Records

For each licensing metric, tables show how you’re using:

 What you’ve purchased

 What you haven’t purchased – your unexpected usage

Here’s what’s included in each table.
