# Configure Usage Pricing

Follow this workflow to enable usage pricing and configure the pricing element for charges and costs.

1. Enable usage pricing. See [Usage-Based Pricing for Industries CPQ](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ind.comms_enable_usage_pricing_for_industries_cpq.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Before you start using the Multi-Site Quote and Order Capture feature, you must enable usage pricing.").
2. Configure charge measurements. See [Configure Charge Measurements](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ind.comms_configure_charge_measurements.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "A charge measurement is a unit of consumption and pricing for utility commodities. Before you configure usage pricing for Energy & Utilities Cloud, configure the charge measurements first.").
3. Create a pricing element for charges and costs. You must also enable Costs and Margins to create a pricing element for costs. See [Create a Pricing Element for Usage Pricing Charges](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ind.comms_create_a_pricing_element_for_usage_pricing_charges.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "You can create a pricing element for usage pricing charges which you can then apply to a product.").
4. Apply the usage pricing element to a product. See [Create a Pricing Element for Usage Pricing Charges](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ind.comms_create_a_pricing_element_for_usage_pricing_charges.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "You can create a pricing element for usage pricing charges which you can then apply to a product.").
