Requesting shorter PDF invoices
The AWS PDF invoice contains the AWS service charges for the payer account (management account) and associated member accounts that are part of your AWS Organizations.
This AWS PDF invoice has the following sections:
-
Overall invoice summary
-
AWS service summary for all accounts
-
Summary activity for member accounts
-
Detailed activity for member accounts
When you request this feature for your account, member account details are removed from the PDF invoice, so that you receive fewer pages.
Note
This feature only removes the member account details from the PDF invoice. You can continue to view this information in the Billing and Cost Management console and AWS Cost Explorer.
