- Purchase Fee
- Cycle Fee
- Usage Fee
- Correction
- One Time Fee
In comparison, in Microsoft system there are around 25 different charge types. AppXite Platform parse the values from Microsoft aggregating data in different charge types by using the following logic:
1.LicenseBased

| Purchase Fee | Purchase Fee |
| Prorate Fee when purchase | |
| Cycle Fee | Cycle Fee |
| Prorate Fee when renew | |
| Correction | Cycle instance prorate |
| Other charge types not mentioned above |
2.OneTime
| AppXite charge type | Microsoft charge type |
| One Time Fee | Purchase |
| Correction | Other charge types not mentioned above |
3.Usage based
| AppXite charge type | Microsoft charge type |
| Usage Fee | Usage based, CSP contract |
| Usage based, Onetime |
4.Other
| AppXite charge type | Microsoft charge type |
| Correction | Other charge types not mentioned in any of the above sections |
Example of License-based subscription with quantity change.
Invoice date: 01.02.2021, billing period 01.01.2021-31.01.2021. Quantity change event has happened on 05.01.2021.
The invoice includes a cycle fee, and a correction line.
In Microsoft's case there are four lines:
- Prorate fee when renew - cycle for the new period (01.02.2021-28.02.2021)
- 1st Cycle instance prorate - cost with the old quantity for the first five days of the billing cycle (01.02.2021-05.02.2021)
- 2nd Cycle instance prorate - cost with the new quantity for the period from the sixth day of the cycle until the next billing cycle (06.02.2021-28.02.2021)
- 3rd Cycle instance prorate - correction for the amount that has already been invoiced in the previous invoice (the previous invoice included a cycle fee for period 01.01.2021-31.01.2021 with the old quantity)
| Microsoft charge type | Total price |
| Prorate fee when renew | 2791.8 |
| Cycle instance prorate | 579.73 |
| Cycle instance prorate | 2193.56 |
| Cycle instance prorate | -2705.4 |
| Total Cycle instance prorate | 67.89 |
Subscription lines with charge type Correction are aggregated in one correction line in AppXite platform despite Microsoft having several lines.
| AppXite charge type | Total price |
| Cycle fee | 2791.8 |
| Correction | 67.89 |
