  2. Hover over Billing & Costs in the upper part of the console and choose Renewal from the drop-down list.

    The Renewals page is displayed.

    Figure 3 Setting search criteria
    • If you have enabled enterprise project management, you can set the search criteria to select an enterprise project and query its resources that are to be renewed.
    • If you select a single expiration criterion, for example, Expires in X days, the resources that will expire in X days and are in the Provisioned state will be displayed. If you select both Expires in A days and Expires in B days (A > B), the resources that will expire in A days will be displayed.
    • The Do not show resources that have orders pending payment option is deselected by default. You can select it to hide resources with orders pending payment.
    • You can move all resources that need to be manually renewed to the Manual Renewals tab page. For details, see Restoring to Manual Renewal.

Setting the Same Renewal Day for Resource Packages

If your resource packages have different expiry dates, you can set the same renewal day, for example, the first day of each month, to make it easier to manage renewals.

In Figure 7, a user sets the same renewal day for two resources that will expire at different dates.
