Beware: Why Microsoft 365 Pay-as-you-go cost management can be misleading
You should not trust the cost management overview in the Microsoft 365 admin center for Pay-as-you-go (PAYG) services.

You should not trust the cost management overview in the Microsoft 365 admin center for Pay-as-you-go (PAYG) services.
Microsoft provides information on the consumption and costs of Pay-as-you-go billing (for Syntex, SharePoint Premium, and Copilot agents) via Azure Export. Administrators can export this information as a report or with PowerShell.
