# Editing your alert preferences
<a name="edit-alert-pref"></a>

You can adjust your cost monitors and alert subscriptions in AWS Billing and Cost Management to match your needs. 

You can also edit your notification configurations in AWS User Notifications.

**Note**  
When using AWS managed monitors, consider that a single threshold applies to all tracked values. If you need different alert thresholds for different teams or accounts, you can:  
Create supplementary customer managed monitors with dedicated alert subscriptions with specific thresholds
Use AWS User Notifications to filter and route alerts based on anomaly attributes
Configure Amazon Amazon SNS topics with custom logic for alert routing
