Stat cards
The top of the tab displays four stat cards:

|---|---|
| Assigned Licenses | Number of licenses currently assigned to users, with the total purchased licenses and the number of available licenses. Select Add Contracts & Licenses if no data exists |

Licenses & Contracts chart
Below the stat cards, the Licenses & Contracts chart plots license count and cost over a selected date range. The chart has two panels:
- Licenses: plots Total Licenses, Assigned, and Overused licenses for each day in the range
- Costs: plots the application's cost for each day in the range
Hover over a date in either panel to see the values for that day, for example Total Licenses 3200, Assigned 2822, and Overused 0 in the Licenses panel, and the cost for that day in the Costs panel.
The legend below the chart identifies each metric by color: Total Licenses, Assigned, Overused, and Costs.
- Use the date range picker at the top right to set the period, for example Aug 2026 to Sep 2026.
- Use the arrows on either side of the date axis to scroll through the dates in the range.
- Select the three-dot menu for Refresh, Download PNG, or Download PDF.
License Types view
Below the chart, switch between License Types, Paid Licenses, and All Licenses using the tabs. Use the filter icon to narrow results.
The License Types view lists each license type as a checklist item, showing:
- The license name, for example Azure Premium P2
- The number of licenses, for example 3200 Licenses
- The cost per month
- The number of unmapped licenses
Select or clear the checkbox next to a license type to include or exclude it from the chart on the right, which breaks down licenses or cost by department. Toggle between No. of Licenses and Cost to change what the chart displays.
The panel on the right shows the number of assigned licenses out of the total, for example 2,776 of 3,200 Assigned Licenses. When some licenses are not yet mapped to users, a Map [N] Licenses button appears, where [N] is the number of licenses still to be mapped. Select it to map those licenses.
When no licenses exist, the view shows a No Licenses Available state.
Select the three-dot menu for Refresh, View Density, Export View, or Custom Export.
