Before you begin:
Configure pricing, e.g. with cost codes (see Create a new cost code) for VM templates and/or Hardware profiles, or resource prices in a pricing model, to assign positive costs to resources (such as VMs). If you don't have this configuration, every billing entry will be set to zero and your billing data will have no costs!
If you are already using billing with CSV format output, please contact Abiquo Support.
