Billing

In Console > Billing, you can view the balance of your billing account and usage statistics of billing items, and analyze costs from four aspects: billing details, monthly bills, usage, and data forwarding usage.

Account Overview

You can view the billing account name, cash account balance, voucher balance, prepaid card balance, and set high consumption alerts for the account, or directly go to the Billing Center.

Set High Consumption Alerts

  • Total Threshold Alert: Set an overall consumption threshold for the workspace, and send email alerts to members when the threshold is exceeded.

  • Single Billing Item Alert: Set alerts for individual billing items, and send email alerts when the daily bill amount exceeds the threshold.

  1. Fill in the total alert threshold;
  2. Select a billing item and enter the alert threshold;
  3. Select members to notify. When the actual bill amount exceeds the set alert threshold, whether for the total threshold or a single billing item, an alert email will be sent to the members;
  4. Confirm.
Note
  • Only Owners and Administrators can set high consumption alerts;
  • Owners are not restricted by the notification object selection and will receive email notifications when alerts are triggered.

Note
  • If the forwarding rules are saved to the backup logs of TrueWatch, the corresponding data retention policy is displayed, otherwise it is shown as -.

Billing Center

Workspace Role Differences
  • Owners: Have the Billing Center button;
  • Administrators: Do not have the above button;
  • Other Members: Do not have access to the Billing module.

TrueWatch adopts two independently operated but statistically related account systems for the Commercial Plan, achieving usage billing and cost settlement:

  • Console account: Counts the data access scale and billing details of the workspace, and synchronizes to the specified Billing Center account;
  • Billing Center account: Bound by workspace ID, achieving unified cost management at the workspace level, supporting multiple cost settlement methods.
