Per-account service overrides have been a feature since migration 000011_cloud_accounts.up.sql:78 (mid-2024 era), and now have full UI coverage thanks to #72 (inline payment edit) and #106 (create modal). None of this is documented in README.md or any user-facing docs. A user landing on the dashboard for the first time sees the panel + the Add override modal but has no narrative for what overrides ARE, when they should be used, or how they interact with the global Settings → Purchasing defaults.
What to add
A short section in README.md (or whichever doc is the user entry-point) covering:
Concept: each account can override the global term/payment/coverage defaults for any (provider, service) pair. Overrides are stored per (account_id, provider, service) and the engine reads them when generating recommendations for that account.
When to use: examples — "this account is dev, prefer 1yr no-upfront for RDS"; "this production account always wants 3yr all-upfront for ElastiCache regardless of the global setting".
What "Inherit" means: a field left blank inherits the global default as configured in Settings → Purchasing — sparse PUT semantics, not a stored "Inherit" value.
Migration considerations: existing scripted setups that use PUT /api/accounts/:id/service-overrides/... continue to work — the UI and the API target the same row.
Out of scope
Backend-only knobs not surfaced in the UI (the include/exclude array fields). Document them once a UI for them lands.
Migration steps for tenants that pre-existed before the override feature — there are none; the feature is additive on existing accounts.
