Step 9. Specify Rates for Rental Licenses

At the Rental Licenses step of the wizard, you can specify charge rates for consumed license instances. Veeam Service Provider Console obtains the number of consumed licenses from the last generated license usage report. To make sure that the invoice will represent the correct number of consumed licenses, you can configure the invoice to generate after the monthly usage report is generated. For details on invoice scheduling configuration, see Scheduling Invoices.
