Mavvrik allows users to onboard AWS Billing and Usage Accounts.
Why this matters: AWS splits cost visibility and resource visibility across two account types — the Management Account gives you the billing data, while Member Accounts give you the resource inventory behind that spend. Onboarding both is what lets Mavvrik show you not just the total, but what specifically drove it.
Billing Account
The billing account in an AWS organization is the management account that is used to manage the AWS accounts and pay for charges that are incurred by the member accounts. This account has the responsibilities of a payer account and cannot be changed, as it is the organization's management account. It is important to properly set up and manage the billing account in an AWS organization to ensure that charges are accurately tracked and paid in a timely manner.
Usage Account
A usage account in an AWS organization is a member account, which is any account that is not the management account. Member accounts make up all of the other accounts in the organization and can only be a member of one organization at a time. Policies can be attached to a usage account to apply controls specifically to that account. It is important to properly set up and manage member accounts in an AWS organization to ensure that resources are used effectively and in accordance with organizational policies and controls.
When an AWS account is connected using a newly created Cost and Usage Report (CUR), AWS only provides data from the current month onward. If historical data is required, please follow the backfill guide
