Concept: Platform Consumption Console

Concept: Platform Consumption Console

The
Platform Consumption Console
dashboard visualizes your company's consumption of Flex Credits based on your usage of Workday offers included in the Workday Flex Credits Rate Card. The
Platform Consumption Console
dashboard enables you to monitor your consumption and Flex Credit balance in your Production tenant.
Flex Credits and the
Platform Consumption Console
dashboard are only available to Universal Main Subscription Agreement (UMSA) and Workday Flex Credits and Platform Entitlement Policy subscribers.

Understanding Consumption

Workday uses multiple components to determine your consumption.
Agents
Usage of agent skills and activities.
API Requests
Number of API requests.
Document Storage
Gigabytes (GB) of data stored.
Integrations Events
Number of integration events processed.
Consumption is based on the specific capabilities defined for each component in the
Rate Card
page and the policy version associated with your agreement.
Your policy provides a baseline usage allowance or embedded entitlement. After this embedded entitlement is used, Workday charges your consumption against your available credit entitlement, prioritizing the credits that will expire first.
You can track your usage against this threshold in the Embedded Entitlement Overview visualization on the
Overview
page.
Workday tracks consumption from 2026-02-13 for current Flex Credits customers and from the agreement effective date for new customers.
If your organization has signed a version of the Workday Flex Credits and Platform Entitlement Policy that does not include platform components or entitlements, you won't see those entitlements or usage in the
Platform Consumption Console
dashboard.

The
Credit Balance
page displays your daily Flex Credit activity. The
Credit Entitlement
