Each email identifies the account, product, approximate usage versus included allowance, and current billing period. It also includes a direct link to budgets for further monitoring.

Managing Alerts

You can opt in or out of these notifications from the Included usage alerts control on the “Budgets & alerts” page. This setting is available to enterprise admins, organization admins, and billing managers.
