Bill Reporting Period

The usage of pay-per-use resources is reported to the billing system at fixed intervals. Pay-per-use resources can be settled by hour, day, or month. ServiceStage is charged by actual usage duration in seconds, and settled by hour. For example, if you stopped your pay-per-use application instance on ServiceStage at 08:30, the fees generated from 08:00 to 09:00 were usually deducted at about 10:00. On the Billing & Costs > Bills > Billing > Expenditure Items page, Expenditure Time for ServiceStage whose Billing Mode is Pay-per-Use is the usage duration.
