An enterprise runs workloads for multiple business units—such as Finance, Human Resources, and Marketing—within a single Azure subscription. The accounting team requires a method to categorize and track cloud spending by department so they can generate accurate internal chargeback reports in Microsoft Cost Management without redesigning their subscription structure.

Azure resource tags are user-defined metadata elements structured as key-value pairs (such as Department : Marketing or CostCenter : 10450) applied directly to Azure resources, resource groups, or subscriptions.
Resource tags provide the contextual business taxonomy necessary to categorize and aggregate spending. When resources generate usage data, the associated tag keys and values are appended to the billing telemetry. Within Microsoft Cost Management, financial teams can filter and group spending data based on specific tag keys, allowing them to track consumption per business unit without having to create separate subscriptions or move resources.
Using resource tags is the standard, most cost-effective method for enabling organizational chargeback and budgeting within a shared subscription model, avoiding the administrative overhead of deploying separate management hierarchies solely for cost accounting.
