+# Export cost savings
+
+To calculate aggregated potential yearly savings, follow these steps: 
+
+1. Sign in to the [**Azure portal**](https://portal.azure.com).
+
+1. Search for and select [**Advisor**](https://aka.ms/azureadvisordashboard) from any page.\
+The Advisor **Overview** page opens.
+
+1. Export cost recommendations by navigating to the **Cost** tab on the left navigation menu and choosing **Download as CSV**.
+
+1. Use the cost savings amount for each recommendation to calculate aggregated potential yearly savings.

+
+> [!NOTE]
+> Recommendations show savings individually, and may overlap with the savings shown in other recommendations, for example – you can only benefit from savings plans for compute or reservations for virtual machines, but not from both.
