All consumption schedules require at least one consumption rate in order to rate usage on a usage product. This object is available in API version 45.0 and later. The consumption rate sets a quantity-based boundary for usage and defines how much your product costs when its usage falls within that boundary. Consumption rates price usage at a per-unit fee or a flat fee across the entire range of usage. ## Supported Calls create(), delete(), describeLayout(), describeSObjects(), getDeleted(), getUpdated(), query(), retrieve(), update(), upsert() ## Fields | Field | Details | | --- | --- | | ConsumptionScheduleId | Type reference Properties Create, Filter, Group, Sort Description The consumption schedule that contains the consumption rate.
