When does the cost of JOB COMPUTE start to be calculated?

Thursday

I'm trying to run a workflow with job compute.
Job compute needs to be pending for about 5 to 7 minutes before executing the workflow. I think it takes time to find a suitable instance in the cloud, configure the environment, install libraries, etc.

And Databricks charges us by the time we use it. So, is the 5-7 minutes required for pending included in the cost? Or is only the time when pending ends and the workflow actually starts included in the cost?

Thank you for your answer.

The cost of JOB COMPUTE starts to be calculated from the moment the job starts running.
You can monitor the cost of jobs that use serverless compute for workflows by querying the billable usage system table.
