A project manager treats an AWS Pricing Calculator worksheet as the official city invoice for last month. What correction should finance give?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
A calculator worksheet is a forecast, not last month’s invoice. Look at the bill or Cost Explorer for what you actually spent.
Full Explanation
AWS Pricing Calculator produces estimates for planning; it does not replace invoices or recorded usage. Actual charges are reflected in the AWS billing console, invoices, Cost Explorer, and Cost and Usage Reports. Confusing estimates with actuals leads to budget errors in municipal reporting.
