Forecasting
Cost Center helps you forecast costs and usage based on your historical Huawei Cloud costs and usage.
Example
Suppose that you want to view the forecasted cost and usage data in next 12 months. As forecasts are only a best guess estimate of future costs, the forecasted billing amounts may differ from your actual expenditures for each billing cycle. For details, see Cost and Usage Forecasting.
Viewing Forecasted Data
- Log in to Cost Center.
- Choose Cost Insights > Cost Analysis.
- Click Create Custom Report under All Reports.
- Select the time range from Current Month to +12M.
- Click OK. The following page is displayed:
The white bars represent the forecasted cost data for the next few months (including the current month). Forecasted Total indicates the total forecasted cost in the following 12 months.
