Account Snapshot

The right-hand sidebar also offers a snapshot of the Account, containing some basic information: storage quota on each available computing cluster, job queue summary, service level, and finally the current balance. The possibility to expand or replenish these two latter items is also offered next to each one of them.

Account Preferences

Clicking Account Preferences lets the user customize account-related information and settings. Such preferences are reviewed extensively in their own documentation section.

The Billing and Payments link redirects to the Billing page. Here, a series of tabs at the top show in turn the different charges applied to the Account (for each job separately) , the payments made by the owner , and the chosen payment methods . More details about such billing and payments information can be found here.
