To retain information, and for auditing purposes, usage records cannot be deleted. However, usage records can be discarded. Usage records that are discarded are excluded from invoicing (will not be billed) and usage reports. In addition, discarded usage records will not display in the UI, unless you specifically choose to view discarded usage via the Usage History module.

Notes:
- Once discarded, the records cannot be reinstated and will have to be reloaded into the system if incorrectly discarded.
