 If you have ordered a CPP SKU, it is for a specific type of machine in a specific data center. As this feature stands today we do not provide a list of all of the CPP purchases a customer has made so there is no list of awaiting credits; however, when you do configure the purchased machine types in the data center where they were purchased, you will see the monthly allocation in the Usage Summary report on the EA Portal.

+The pre-purchased amount will show up as a credit in the "Included Units" column and usage against it will result in no usage charges until the "Included Units" are consumed. Once they are consumed, additional usage will be at the negotiated rates in the normal EA customer price sheet.
 
 The way the credits are purchased are based on number of machines of a class per month. For example: if you purchased 70 A2 VMs per year in US East 2, you would not quite see that in the EA portal in the same way you purchased it.
 
-Monthly machines are calculated as running 744 hours per month. Converting that to hours would be 70 times 744 or 52,080 purchased hours of A2 VMs per month. Since in the EA Portal Usage Summary A2 VMs are reported in 100-Hours increments what you would see is a credit of 520.8 (52,080/100) “Included Units” per month and you would see the consumed units so far in the month. The usage charges should show as zero until the monthly consumed units exceed the monthly included units.

 Different machine types use different units of measure so for example D3 and D4 VMs use a 10-Hours unit of measure in our Usage Summary report so a purchase of 70 of those would show up a 5208 included units per month (52,080/10).
 
 In general, the formula below will provide you the number of VMs purchased based on their units of measurement:
