What happened?

The "Usage View" selector on the dashboard offers two options: Global Usage and Team Usage. When switching between them, the cost data displayed is noticeably different, with no explanation of why the numbers diverge.

If Team Usage is an Enterprise-only feature, it should either be hidden entirely for non-Enterprise users or clearly labeled as such. Currently, it's accessible to all users and displays cost data that doesn't align with Global Usage, which leads to confusion — users can't tell which view reflects the actual spend, or whether the discrepancy is expected behavior.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open the LiteLLM dashboard and navigate to the Usage section.
  2. Select Global Usage from the "Usage View" dropdown and note the cost values displayed.
  3. Switch to Team Usage from the same dropdown.
  4. Compare the cost data — the values are different with no indication of why.

TL;DR

The discrepancy in cost data between Global Usage and Team Usage views can be addressed by either hiding the Team Usage option for non-Enterprise users or providing clear labeling to indicate that it is an Enterprise-only feature.

Guidance

  • Verify the intended behavior of the Team Usage feature to determine if it should be accessible to all users or only Enterprise users.
  • Check the documentation for the LiteLLM dashboard to see if there are any existing explanations for the discrepancy in cost data between the two views.
  • Consider adding a tooltip or label to the Team Usage option to clarify its purpose and any limitations for non-Enterprise users.
  • Review the user interface to ensure that the cost data displayed is consistent and accurate, and that any discrepancies are clearly explained.

Notes

The issue lacks specific technical details, such as code snippets or error messages, which limits the ability to provide a more detailed solution.

Recommendation

Apply a workaround by adding clear labeling to the Team Usage option to indicate its intended use and any limitations for non-Enterprise users, as this can help mitigate user confusion without requiring significant changes to the underlying functionality.
