Using Budget Reports to Track Your Budget

You can create a budget report so that HUAWEI CLOUD will periodically generate and send to you on a schedule that you configure.

Example

Suppose that you want to create a monthly budgeted amount of ¥1,200 for pay-per-use ECSs, and to receive an alert if the actual amount exceeds 80% of the budgeted amount.

Step 1: Creating a Budget

For details, see Step 1: Creating a Budget.

Step 2: Creating a Budget Report

  1. Log in to Cost Center.
  2. Choose Reports > Budget Reports.
  3. Click Create Budget Report in the upper right corner of the page.
  4. Specify the report name, include the budget created in Step 1: Creating a Budget, and click Next.
  5. Set the delivery frequency, select the report recipients, and click Next.

    A maximum of 50 contacts can be selected for each alert. If you want to add or modify the recipient information, go to the Message Receiving Management > Recipient Management page in the Message Center.

  6. Confirm your budget report information and click Save.
