Understand your invoice with reports

To get a detailed view of your costs for a given invoice or during a given period, you can run a report using either of the following options.

Open your invoices in Reports

You can see a breakdown of your cloud invoicing by running a report on specific assets directly from the Invoices page, with the data used to generate the invoices.

Info

This option is not available for Microsoft Azure, Google Workspace, or Office 365 assets.

To see your invoice data in Reports:

1. Sign in to the DoiT console.

2. Select Billing from the top navigation bar, and then select Invoices.

3. Select Open in Reports and:

   • Select the time frame you want to learn more about.

   • Select the invoice buckets you want to include in your report.

4. Select Open and once the Reports page opens, select Run report.

If you run a report with a large amount of data, the process may take some minutes.

Attribution group: Invoices

The attribution group Invoices is used to analyze invoices issued to the following asset types, each invoice corresponds to an individual attribution entry:

• Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud: For costs incurred by AWS accounts, Google Cloud billing accounts and Google Cloud projects

  • If you're using custom bucketing, attributions follow the naming convention [{billing_profile_id}] {billing_profile_name} - {bucket_name}.

  • Otherwise, attributions follow the naming convention [{billing_profile_id}] {billing_profile_name} - {asset_type}.

• Looker: Looker invoices appear in the attribution entry named Looker.

For other asset types, only Microsoft Azure billing data is available in Cloud Analytics; it will stay in the pre-defined attribution entry named Unallocated.

Examples

The example report below uses the attribution group Invoices for invoices issued to a fictitious company:

• The company has a Billing profile US123123 – Example.com with custom buckets.

• Three buckets are listed individually, which means they are invoices issued to assets such as AWS accounts, Google Cloud billing accounts, and Google Cloud projects.

You can add more dimensions to further break down the invoice. Below is an example of the invoice issued to the bucket Engineering.

The example below combines all three group allocations for Billing and invoicing for a breakdown of cost categories and savings.
