This guide is designed for project manager.
Steps
Step 1: Open the IU Usage widget
On your dashboard, locate the IU Usage widget in the Financial section to view current-period consumption and remaining allowance.

Step 2: Review current period usage
Check the usage bar and figures to see how many IUs you have used, your limit for the current period, and the percentage of the allowance consumed.

Step 3: Check billing period dates and days remaining
Look at the period start and end dates and the days remaining indicator to understand how much time is left in the current IU period.

Step 4: Analyse daily IU usage trends
Scroll or look down within the widget to review daily IU usage, helping you identify spikes or trends across the current period.

Step 5: Review IU usage by task type
Use the usage-by-task section and icons to see which task types are consuming the most IUs, helping you pinpoint high-usage activities.

Step 6: Assess projected usage and overage risk
Check the projected usage indicator to see whether you are on track to stay within your IU limit or are likely to exceed it by the end of the period.

Step 7: Understand estimated time savings
Review the time-saved metric to estimate how many hours have been saved by using IUs across your project workflows.

Step 8: Refresh IU usage data
Select the refresh control on the widget to pull the latest IU usage figures from the server when you need up-to-date information.
