Bills

Bill Reporting Period

After a one-time charge is paid, a bill is reported to the billing system in real time for settlement.

The usage of pay-per-use resources is reported to the billing system at a fixed interval for settlement. A pay-per-use resource is billed by the hour, day, or month, depending on the resource's usage type. In CCM, the bills for private certificate management are settled by the hour.

You are not charged immediately after a billing record is generated. For example, if a private certificate (which is billed on an hourly basis) is disabled at 08:30, your expenditures for the hour from 08:00 to 09:00 will not likely be billed until about 10:00. On the Billing Center > Billing > Transactions and Detailed Bills > Transaction Bills page, Expenditure Time indicates the time when a pay-per-use product is used.
