AWS Billing Transfer users can now enable the Auto-Billing Transfer Billing Group Creation, a new AWS Billing Conductor preference that eliminates the manual billing group configuration in two-level billing transfer arrangements. Designed for AWS Distributors managing billing for downstream seller Partners and their end customers, this feature automatically creates billing groups when an end customer accepts a billing transfer from a downstream seller Partner, ensuring pro forma cost data is immediately available to the Partner, with no extra manual configuration.
Auto-Billing Transfer Billing Group Creation is a one-time preference configuration per inbound transfer relationship, enabling you to request the creation of a billing group for any new indirect transfer coming through your Partners’ account, as well as being able to specify an AWS Billing Conductor pricing plan for the billing groups created automatically.
The preference is accessible through two new API operations and through the AWS Management Console in the Billing Transfer details page.
To learn more about Auto-Billing Transfer Billing Group Creation and how to configure your billing transfer preferences, visit the AWS Billing Conductor documentation.
