# Assign access to Cost Management data

For users with Azure Enterprise agreements, a combination of permissions granted in the Azure portal and the Enterprise (EA) portal define a user's level of access to Azure Cost Management data. For users with other Azure account types, defining a user's level of access to Cost Management data is simpler by using Azure role-based access control. This article walks you through assigning access to Cost Management data. After the combination of permissions is assigned, the user views data in Cost Management based the scope that they have access to and on the scope that they select in the Azure portal.

The scope that a user selects is used throughout Cost Management to provide data consolidation and to control access to cost information. When using scopes, users don't multi-select them. Instead, they select a larger scope that child scopes roll up to and then they filter-down to what they want to view. Data consolidation is important to understand because some people shouldn't have access to a parent scope that child scopes roll up to.
