3.1.29 Consumed Quantity

The Consumed Quantity represents the volume of a metered SKU associated with a resource or service used, based on the Consumed Unit. Consumed Quantity is often derived at a finer granularity or over a different time interval when compared to the Pricing Quantity (complementary to Pricing Unit) and focuses on resource and service consumption, not pricing and cost.

ConsumedQuantity adheres to the following requirements:

• ConsumedQuantity MUST be present in a Cost and Usage FOCUS dataset when the service provider supports the measurement of usage.
• ConsumedQuantity MUST be of type Decimal.
• ConsumedQuantity MUST conform to NumericFormat requirements.
• ConsumedQuantity nullability is defined as follows:
  • ConsumedQuantity MUST be null when SkuPriceId is null.
  • ConsumedQuantity MUST be null when ChargeCategory is not "Usage", or when ChargeCategory is "Usage" and CommitmentDiscountStatus is "Unused".
  • When ChargeCategory is "Usage" and CommitmentDiscountStatus is not "Unused", ConsumedQuantity adheres to the following additional requirements:
    • ConsumedQuantity MUST NOT be null when ChargeClass is not "Correction".
    • ConsumedQuantity MAY be null when ChargeClass is "Correction".
• ConsumedQuantity MUST be a valid decimal value when not null.
