Working in Account Overview

When you first open an Account page, the Overview tab is selected. From here, you can quickly review key aspects of the current setup and state of the Account:

  • The latest Bills for the Account are listed and you can view charts that track revenue, billed usage data, and billed recurring charges data for the service period covered by the latest Bills.

  • Linked entities on the Account are listed and you can review and manage these directly from the tab:

    • Prepayments

    • Attached Plans

    • Contracts

This topic explains how to work in the Account Overview tab to review latest Bills on an Account and review and manage linked entities on an Account:

Reviewing Latest Bills on Account

When you open an Account's Overview tab, on the Latest bills card the latest ten Bills for the Account are listed ordered by Bill date with the most recent Bill at the top:

  • A chart tracking revenue for the Latest bills is also loaded:

  • Hover over a Bill date to check the Total billed amount.

  • Use the controls at top-right to zoom in and out of the chart:

  • Select the menu to download the chart to your Downloads folder in SVG, PNG, or CSV format:

You can also bring up billed quantities charts for Latest bills. These show the quantities used for billed amounts - either for usage charges by an Aggregation used to price Account Plans or for recurring charges by a Counter used to price Account Plans.

  • For the Billed Usage chart, select an Aggregation:

  • The usage data measures used for billed usage are loaded into the chart, and you can hover over a data point to read-off a specific measure:

  • For the Billed recurring charges chart, select a Counter:

  • The Counter values used for billed recurring charges are loaded into the chart, and you can hover over a data point to read-off a specific value:

  • Note that the same zoom controls and download functions available on the revenue tracker chart are available on these billed quantities charts also.

Tip: Charts not Showing? There are cases where charts will not show on the Account Overview tab:

  • The revenue tracking chart for an Account's Latest bills will not show if the Bills listed are in mixed currencies.

  • The Billed usage and Billed recurring charges charts will not show if all of the Account's Latest bills are made up of standing charge, minimum spend, Prepayment fees, or Balance draw-down charge line items, since non of these charges are based on aggregated usage measures or Counter values.
