Split bill details-Expenses and Costs-阿里云帮助中心

Cost allocation lets you reallocate cloud resource costs based on your management needs, analysis requirements, or resource granularity. Split bill details provide a more granular view of expenses, which you can use for internal cost allocation. The final split bill details for the current month are generated at 12:00 on the fourth day of the following month. Data queried before this time is for reference only and is not a basis for reconciliation.

Note

Alibaba Cloud provides two versions of split bill details: Split Bill Details (Legacy) and Split Bill Details (New). The new version is currently available by invitation. For more information about the differences in features between the bill versions, see Fields in new bills and differences from legacy bills.

How cost allocation works

For some Alibaba Cloud services, such as content delivery network (CDN) and Object Storage Service (OSS), the costs in Bill Details are not split by domain name or bucket. The billing granularity does not match the resource management granularity. The Split Bill feature automatically splits the costs for these services. The Split Item ID corresponds to the resource granularity of the service.

For example, the billing granularity for OSS in bill details is by region, but the resource management granularity is by bucket. When the system allocates costs, it splits the region-level costs into bucket-level entries in the split bill details. In the split bill details, the Split Item ID field corresponds to the bucket name.

You can also allocate costs using configurations such as cost centers, cost allocation tags, and resource groups. After you allocate resource fees based on cost centers, cost allocation tags, or resource groups, you can view the fees by different dimensions in the split bill details.

Note

For services that are automatically split by Split Item in Split Bill, if both the service instance and its corresponding Split Item have tags or resource groups configured, the costs are allocated based on the tags or resource groups of the Split Item.

For example, the Split Item of Internet Shared Bandwidth (pay-as-you-go) is an Elastic IP Address (EIP). If the Internet Shared Bandwidth (pay-as-you-go) instance is configured with Tag A and the EIP is configured with Tag B, the costs are automatically allocated based on Tag B that is configured for the EIP.
