Now, why we're talking about cost, I want to introduce you to another two in the actual battle that

2

can greatly help you managing your costs.

3

Of course, we will have a full section about it later.

4

But since we have a limited budget and remember, we have a budget of two hundred dollars, which you've

5

got as a credit when creating the new budget account, we want to make sure we are not hitting that

6

limit.

7

So let's see how we can do that.

8

So, as usual, we start with the suitable and let's type in cost management actually right at the beginning.

9

We already have it in our autocomplete.

10

And let's click cost management plus billing.

11

Now, the cost management is a central hub for managing anything that is cost related.

12

And we will again deep dive into it later.

13

Now let's click on cost management.

14

And here, let's go for budgets.

15

And what budget allow us to define, well, budget that we are getting close to it.

16

We get a notification now since we have a two hundred dollar credit, we want to know when we are getting

17

close to this two hundred dollars limit.

18

So let's click add.

19

And do we define the budget that we want to monitor?

20

So let's name the budget and we will give it the name of close to 200.

21

We want it to be an annual budget because the two hundred dollars are not renewed every month.

22

This is a one time credit.

23

So we want to make sure that no matter when we started using Agile, we need to know when we are getting

24

close to this limit.

25

Now, the budget amount is the amount that we want to get notification for when we are getting close

26

to the amount.

27

Here is two hundred and now click next.

28

So here's what we do, is define the alert that we want to get when we are getting close to this budget.

29

So here we define what is a percent of this budget that when we hit, we want to get the notification

30

about it.

31

So we want to know when we hit 90 percent, which is one hundred and eighty dollars of this budget,

32

and we want to get the notification to our email.

33

In my case, this will be the email.

34

You, of course, feel free to write whatever email address you want.

35

You can, of course, as you can see, to type in more than just one address.

36

You can also choose in which language you want to get the notification again, pick whatever language

37

you want.

38

I will stick to English and create and after a short validation, we will go back to the budget list.

39

And as you can see, we have here the new budget.

40

So we see that we created a new budget.

41

This budget is annual, so it's effective from the beginning of this year to the end of the next year.

42

And the budget we defined was two hundred dollars.

43

So if you will get an automated email alerting you that you are getting close to the budget, then now

44

you can know where did it come from?

45

It came from the budget that we just defined.
