User Allocation to Financial Scope

FinOps Center maps Users to their Financial Budget/Scope. A key feature of FinOps Center is "Rollup" of Spending and Budget within the hierarchy.

As depicted below, the Roles rollup spending from the members of their Financial Scope.

From the Drop Down, A user will be added to the Financial Scope aligned to the Role they were onboarded to when they were added to FinOps Center.

Users can have multiple scopes within their hierarchy but must have the same "Parent". In the examples below Department can have multiple departments within Enterprise but not in different Business Units.

This mapping drives Row Level Security (RLS) across all QuickSight dashboards and datasets. A Business Unit Manager assigned to E1 sees all spending under their BU, while a Product Owner at E4 sees only their product's cost data. The Financial Admin manages all user-to-element allocations and can grant multi-element access when a user's responsibilities span multiple financial scopes.
