 This is a difficult question to answer since there are a number of factors that can affect how much data is used, such as what activities are being carried out (e.g. copy & pasting, printing, screen resolution of session, etc.), device redirection (printers, POS, etc) and so on. It is complicated to put an exact number on this. However, the use of Remote Desktop Services is extremely light, since only pictures, keyboard presses, mouse-clicks, etc., are being sent to our servers. The ‘main’ data transfer happens on the cloud, on the Azure backbone. This means that when reports are being run, the data stays in the cloud, rather than being pushed over an internet connection to the client.  However, when the report is printed the pages would be sent to your local printer.
-A good rule of thumb is bandwidth starts at 50K per session and goes up from there based on usage.  To get your number try looking at your own [[https://superuser.com/questions/43797/microsoft-remote-desktop-bandwidth-usage|bandwidth usage]].
