Usage Report

The Usage Report screen is the compliance comparison: for each (Application, Component), it shows the observed user counts side-by-side with the subscribed quantity, and computes the compliance delta. Positive means within entitlement, negative means over-consumption.

It is the chart you take to the licensing audit — and the one that drives the Financial Report.

Goal of the view​

For each (Application, Component):

  • Where do we stand? Compliance = Subscribed − Users used (or active users when known). A positive value is underutilisation — possible right-sizing opportunity. A negative value is over-consumption — a true compliance gap.
  • Make the audit conversation factual. The numbers come straight from the OUT data set joined to the contractual LICENSE_CSI_COMPONENTS aggregation per application.
  • Spot the costly gaps fast. Sort Compliance ascending — every negative row is a topic for the renewal discussion.

Columns​

ColumnSourceWhat it tells you
Application IDAPPS_ID — application identifier.The connected application.
ComponentCPT_ID — licence component.The licence bucket.
Users countUSERS_COUNT — distinct users observed on the component.Total observed cohort.
Active users countACTIVE_USERS_COUNT — count restricted to currently active users.Tighter cohort used in the compliance formula when available.
SubscribedSUBSCRIBED — entitlement aggregated from LICENSE_CSI_COMPONENTS.Contractual quantity for the application × component.
ComplianceCOMPLIANCE — signed delta.Positive = within entitlement, negative = over-consumption.

The formula: COMPLIANCE = SUBSCRIBED − (ACTIVE_USERS_COUNT or USERS_COUNT when no active count is available).

Tips & best practices​

  • Negative Compliance rows are the audit fail list. Each one has to be either subscribed up or remediated by user / right cleanup.
  • A positive compliance with high Users count is a candidate for down-sizing at the next renewal — bring it to procurement.
  • Components with subscription = 0 but users > 0 indicate a component used without contractual coverage. Either the procurement record is incomplete or the component is being used outside the contract scope.
  • Combine with OUT — Components to dig into who is on the component when the compliance is negative.
