AWS account Cost forecast is not looking right @ root and linked account levels

Open kartraj opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

We have connected the AWS root account enabled with also linked one of its child accounts under it as datasources. The forecast is showing ~$30 at the root level but at the linked account level has a forecast of ~$80. Screenshot 2023-10-03 at 8 38 50 PM

what could be the reason? please advise @maxb-hystax @sd-hystax

Hi @kartraj, OptScale counts expenses for both accounts separately, meaning that root account expenses track only expenses for resources which belong to the root account itself. Could this be the reason for confusion you see?
