Usage metering on Usage Engine Cloud Edition is a purpose-built software that solves complex usage-based billing problems which require advanced usage-data management and metering capabilities. It measures the usage of assets, transactions, and events over different time periods without the need to replace existing billing or ERP systems.
Usage metering collects usage data from operational systems and meters usage over a billing period. After a billing period ends, the metered data is sent to the billing or ERP system as usage summaries.
