 Step 2: In the Cost Management section, click on Cost Analysis.



 Step 3: In the Cost Analysis, choose the Invoice date using the Invoice.



 Step 4: In the Cost analysis interface, click on the + Add filter. Set the Resource type filter to "Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines". In the Cost Management section, click on Cost Analysis.


Step 5: Under Group by, select Resource, and select Monthly on the Granularity.


 

Step 6: Click Download, select Excel, and click Download data.


 

Step 7: To check the cost on the Azure portal using a table view, choose Table.


 

Step 8: We can see the table view and check the general cost.

On 21 March 2025, at the Paddipalai Divisional Secretariat, I delivered a session focused on Microsoft Copilot and its potential applications in our government workstreams.

During this session, we focused:

  • Explore how Copilot can streamline daily tasks and improve productivity.

  • Review practical use cases tailored to government operations (e.g., document drafting, summarization, data insights).

  • Demonstrate live examples of Copilot in action within Microsoft 365 apps.

  • Discuss governance, data security, and compliance considerations specific to public sector environments.
