Real-Time Usage Rating

The Real-Time Usage Rating feature is in Limited Availability. If you wish to have access to the feature, submit a request at Zuora Global Support.

Zuora now provides a capability to rate or re-rate usage records in real time for existing usage charge models. You can create usage records through the REST API, or import usage files through the Zuora UI and REST API.

With the Real-Time Usage Rating feature enabled, Zuora rates the usage records in near real-time when the usage records are created or imported into Zuora. You can also retrieve usage consumption information through the Zuora UI and REST API any time after new usage records are submitted. 

This feature provides near real-time usage rating with better scalability and real-time access to rated usage information.

For more information, see Real-Time Usage Rating.
