We noticed that historical values also change in the usage report extracted from the Office 365 Admin Page.
https://admin.microsoft.com/Adminportal/Home?source=applauncher#/reportsUsage

For example, when we extracted Email Activity report on 4/1/2021 (i.e., Report Refresh Date), the values for Report Date 3/31/2021 were as follows:

Email Send Activity: 96964
Email Receive Activity: 646489
Email Read Activity: 628318

Whereas same Email Activity report extracted on 4/13/2021 (i.e., Report Refresh Date), the values for Report Date 3/31/2021 were as follows:

Email Send Activity: 96972
Email Receive Activity: 646503
Email Read Activity: 628348

We have noticed such minor changes in other Usages reports also (Yammer and Teams). Could you please clarify why does the historical data gets updated for these usage reports.
