The Microsoft 365 Admin Center has updated its License Management section with enhanced reporting capabilities. Admins can now see per-user monthly cost, last active date, and underutilized feature flags to help right-size their subscriptions and reduce licensing waste.
A useful tool for admins looking to optimize licensing spend.
New Reporting Fields
- Per-User Monthly Cost
- Last Active Date
- Underutilized Feature Flags
Access the updated reports via Microsoft 365 Admin Center > Billing > Licenses.
Our Take
This is the right call, but Microsoft is underselling how disruptive it'll be. Users have built years of muscle memory around that Chat / Teams split — expect a wave of support tickets the week it lands. Get ahead of it with a quick communication to your users before it shows up, not after.
Bottom Line
Good change, bad rollout timing for unprepared orgs. Send a user comm now.
