Hi Ari,
Why would you like to have individual fee information? Fee sensibility can be studied in bulk using the total fees, which is available.

That would tell you on average if you wanted the granularity to analyze and bucket trades to decide which would be the cheapest option or which broker to route certain trades.
This is mostly valuable in the derivative space rather than equities. For example, managing a specific greek risk and using the order data to analyze actual costs where the costs for the various securities available are variable depending on lot size, premium, etc.

Hi Ari,
You can pre-calculate the order fee using the security price, quantity to be ordered, and the Fee Model of the security and add the fee as a tag to get an estimate of the fees for individual trades. I've shown an example in the attached backtest.
Best,
