Overview

This guide walks you through how to use the Access Group feature to group multiple Billing Groups together. By creating a Wave account linked to an Access Group, you can manage the costs of multiple Billing Groups within a single Wave account.

Example use case: If Billing Groups are created per department, you can use an Access Group to consolidate them and enable company-wide cost monitoring through a single Wave account.


How to Create an Access Group

  1. From the left menu, click Account/Group > Wave User Management, then click ... in the top right corner

  2. Click Access Group Management

  3. On the Access Group Management screen, click Create New Group in the top right corner

  4. Enter the Group Name, description, and select the Billing Groups to include

  5. Click Create to complete ✅


Linking Access Group

Once an access group is created, you will be able to select that group when creating a Wave account.

  1. From the left menu, Account/Group > Wave User Management > Create Wave User > Group: Access Group

  2. Enter the email address there and select the access group.

  3. Set the password and click Register from the bottom right.

Your Access Group is now linked to the Wave account. ✅


Notes

  • Billing Groups using both tag-based and account-based resources can be included in an Access Group, allowing you to view costs by tag and by account in Wave

  • Billing Groups from multiple cloud vendors can be linked to a single Access Group
