Summary

Vantage has introduced a new feature called Discount Toggling for MSP Managed Accounts, which enables Managed Service Provider (MSP) customers to control whether end customers receive Reserved Instance and Savings Plan benefits from commitments purchased on an AWS Payer account. This feature allows MSPs to decide if the discounts should be applied to the managed accounts or if the usage should revert to list price, thus simplifying the billing process and eliminating the need for manual adjustments in Cost and Usage Reports. This change helps MSPs manage their margins by allowing them to choose which commitments' benefits are passed on to the end customers, with the option to create a custom billing rule to manage these adjustments. The feature is designed to ease the complex and error-prone reconciliation processes typically required to segregate MSP and customer commitments, and it currently supports AWS with no additional cost for using this feature. Users of the parent Vantage Management Account will still see AWS-billed costs, facilitating margin comparison and cost analysis, while end customers will see usage at list price in their managed accounts.
