Usage Data Extract

The first time the Usage Data Extract job runs it creates a snapshot of usage events from the day prior to the day the job runs. (Usage events from 00:00:00 to 23:59:59, FlexNet Operations server time, on the previous day are captured when the job runs). Subsequently, when this job runs, it creates a snapshot from the end time of the last successful run to the current time.

A successful run of this job creates a comma-separated value (CSV) file. The first line of the job output contains the header information for the table described by the CSV. If no usage events occurred in the job period, the CSV output includes only the header row content.

Note:The date/time format of the data extract is controlled by the Use ISO 8601 time format in extracts configuration option. For more information, see Configuring System Settings | General Options in the FlexNet Operations User Guide.
