Overview

Enhance financial control through active notifications

Many companies are concerned about potential cost escalations in the cloud. The solution helps to allay these concerns by quickly uncovering expensive or inadvertent service activations by regularly querying the current costs of individual SAP BTP services. This prevents unpleasant surprises when the monthly invoice arrives.

Simple commissioning of the service

Once the cloud solution and the SAP Alert Notification Service standard edition are configured, notifications are generated automatically minimizing manual intervention. There's no need to manually monitor the current cost value in the SAP BTP cockpit.

Customizable cost thresholds alert groups

The supplied customizing can be used to configure the cost threshold at which an email notification is sent to different recipients (freely configurable) via the SAP Alert Notification Service standard edition.
