Account Families
The Account Families feature allows you to group multiple accounts together that are part of a larger consolidated bill, enabling you to generate list cost as if the accounts in the account family are in their own consolidated bill and share cross-account RIs, tier pricing, and volume RI discounts. Using account families for linked accounts allows for more accurate invoices and cost generation for more complex situations. There is no limit to the number of account families you can create, but you must have at least one account before you can create an account family.
To access this feature, go to the left navigation pane, and choose Cost > AWS Partner Tools > Configure > Account Families. The Account Families page shows you how many AWS accounts are within your consolidated bill, the number of account families you have created, and if there are any accounts mapped to an account family.
