Partner | Changes to SPP Credit Visibility - Coming Soon

In the coming weeks, we will be improving our support for AWS’s Solution Provider Program (SPP) credits in the Cost History report when inline automation is enabled in AWS. Once released, if you have enabled inline automation in AWS for SPP credits, you will now be able to filter to those credits as a charge type and categorize by service category on the Cost History report. This will allow you to see which services got the benefit of the SPP credits.

Partner | New Assign Credit Menu Columns

We have updated the Assign Credit menu to include two additional columns: Owner ID and Payer Account ID, to better track which AWS accounts were given credits.

New Azure Amortized Cost Report

We are announcing the general availability of the new Azure Amortized Cost Report. This new report utilizes the new Cost Management APIs from Microsoft, providing better accuracy and scalability. Customers can use this report to look at the Amortized Cost for their Azure services. In order to take advantage of this new report, customers must update their Service Principal(s) to contain the ‘enrollmentreader’ permission.

Updates to Perspectives Usability

We’ve released several updates to improve the usability of Perspectives. These enhancements are available now for all customers:

  • Updated key AWS asset type labels and tooltips to improve clarity and usability - AWS Taggable and AWS Associated Asset type label is more concise to improve comprehension and avoid truncation when selected from dropdowns.

  • View Rules from Discover tab - Clicking the new view icon will now show the group’s rules:

  • Consistency and correctness of progress messages - Ensured correct and consistent progress messages are displayed when adding or changing groups within a perspective. Additionally, we removed unnecessary acknowledgements to expedite the Perspective building experience.

  • Discover tab defaults to Categorize - To optimize for the primary use case, ‘Categorize’ will be the default Discover option.

  • Trailing Whitespace characters - At times what appears to be duplicate groups are due variations that contain trailing whitespace characters. In Perspectives Groups, you will now see these trailing whitespace characters as URL encoded (for example, a trailing space character will display as %20).
