  Key Concepts: 
  Metering is a feature of the SAP CEC-SAL-SB Subscription Management and Billing component that allows customers to track and monitor their usage of services. It enables customers to accurately measure their usage of services and pay for only what they use. Metering also helps customers to identify areas where they can optimize their usage and reduce costs. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Metering can be used to track usage of services such as cloud storage, bandwidth, and other services. It can be used to measure usage in real-time or over a period of time. Metering can also be used to set up billing plans that are based on usage, allowing customers to pay for only what they use. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up metering, it is important to ensure that the metering data is accurate and up-to-date. This will ensure that customers are billed accurately and that they are not overcharged for services they do not use. It is also important to ensure that the metering data is secure and protected from unauthorized access.
