Why can't I see usage charges in Shopify dev store settings?

We are using shopify billing api and create recurring application charge and during that we also include capped_amount and terms, since we want to charge on usage also.  We are creating recurring application charge using test:true mode since we are testing it.
So after creating recurring application charge, whenever a usage event occurs, we also create usage charge on recurring application charge. This is all success full . We get usage charge object with id in response when we create usage charge indicating successful charge creating.

However we don't see usage charge in dev store settings=>billing=>Subscriptions. It shows recurring application charge, but we do not see usage charge. We have also looked on app page in the store, but could not find usage charge details any where. 

Wanted store owner to see the usage charge applied. Can any one guide whether usage charges are shown to owner if yes where..

For what it's worth, I'm experiencing the exact same thing. The recurring application charge has the test flag. The create usage charge endpoint returns a valid response with a usage charge id, but querying that charge id returns that it doesn't exist.

 

I'm assuming that the API doesn't actually create the charge if the reference recurring charge is a test type, but would be nice to have a confirmation that that is what's happening.

 

Did you ever run this in non-test mode to confirm, or get any other information about this?
