Project Cost

Overview

The Cost section gives you a consolidated, real-time view of budget allocation and resource expenditure across your project. This is a read-only monitoring surface — budgets are allocated upstream by your platform administrator (see Budget).

Navigation: Select Cost from the left-hand navigation pane.

The Cost Dashboard

When you open the Cost section, the dashboard displays:

Field Description
Total Budget Available The overall budget allocated to your project, as set by your platform administrator.
Total Budget Used The cumulative spend to date against the allocated budget.
Remaining Budget What remains of the allocation after current consumption.
Allocation Date The date on which the current budget was allocated.
Alert Thresholds Spend thresholds at which notifications are triggered. These are configured by your platform administrator — contact them if thresholds need adjustment.

The left-hand filter panel lets you drill into expenditure at different levels of granularity, such as Team, Project, User, Date Range, and Resource Type. For example, use the resource type selector to break down costs by category:

  • Pipelines — Compute costs from pipeline runs.
  • Workstations — Costs from active and stopped workstation instances.
  • Workspaces — Costs associated with workspace environments.
  • All — A combined view of all resource types (default).

Selecting a specific resource type updates the budget overview, total used, and remaining figures to reflect only that category's consumption.

Reading Budget Against Spend

The Cost dashboard presents budget figures alongside actual spend, allowing assessments of how much headroom remains at any given level.

Important: Alert thresholds and hard stops when a budget is exhausted are configured by your platform administrator under Budget.
