Create Sub-Billing Center and Allocation Rules

Important:To create sub-billing centers and to modify their allocation rules, you must have the Manage billing centers role. For more information, see Managing Billing Center Access. For complete descriptions of each role available in Flexera One, see Flexera One Roles.

By default, billing centers do not have any sub-billing centers or allocation rules.

To create a sub-billing center:

1. Go to the Billing Centers page (Cloud > Cost Optimization > Billing Centers).
2. Click the billing center that needs to be further decomposed. If there is not a billing centers or Allocation Rules tab, that means that no sub-billing centers currently exist.
3. Click the Billing Centers tab.
4. Click Create New Billing Center in the upper-right corner of the Billing Centers page. The Create New Billing Center slideout opens.
5. In the Billing Center Name field, enter the name of the billing center and optionally add a description in the Description field.
6. Click Create.

After you create your first sub-billing center, the Billing Centers and Allocation Rules tabs will be available. From this point, you can follow the normal process for creating Allocation Rules minding the concepts above.
