Question: Why can't I view my latest billing data when I query my Cost and Usage Reports using Amazon Athena?

I can't view my latest billing data when I query my Cost and Usage Reports using Amazon Athena.

ResolutionThe most common reason for this issue is missing partitions in the Cost and Usage Reports table. To resolve this issue, choose one or more of the following solutions.Be sure to load table partitions for manually created Cost and Usage Reports tableIf you manually created the Cost and Usage Reports table, then load table partitions by running the MCSK REPAIR TABLE command in the Amazon Athena console. Or, you can upload the partitions from the Amazon Athena console.If you have set up an AWS Glue crawler to periodically add partitions to your table, then be sure that the crawler is scheduled to run before generating the report. Otherwise, you might not view latest billing data in query results.Be sure to check the Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) path and AWS Glue crawlerYou can use an AWS CloudFormation template to integrate your Cost and Usage Reports with Athena. This template includes an AWS Glue crawler, an AWS Glue database, and an AWS Lambda event. The Lambda function initiates an AWS Glue crawler when new Cost and Usage Reports files are delivered to the Amazon S3 path. Then, the crawler automatically adds partitions to the table based on the data in the Cost and Usage Reports files. If you can't view the latest billing data when you query the table, then check your S3 path. Make sure that the Cost and Usage Reports files are delivered. Also, check your AWS Glue crawler to be sure that it's not in RUNNING or FAILED status.Use partition projection to populate the partitions automaticallyYou can create the Cost and Usage Reports table using partition projection. In partition projection, partition values and locations are calculated dynamically instead of being physically stored in the AWS Glue Data Catalog. Therefore, you don't need to manually add the partitions to view the latest data. You can query the report files immediately after they are delivered to your Amazon S3 bucket.To create a Cost and Usage Reports table using partition projection, do the following:Note: Be sure that you selected Athena for Enable report data integration for when you created the Cost and Usage Reports. By selecting Athena for integration with the report, the report files are delivered to the target account in partitioned parquet format. It might take up to 24 hours for the report files to be delivered to the target files. The file paths look similar to the following:s3://example-report-prefix/example-report-name/example-report-name/year=2021/month=1s3://example-report-prefix/example-report-name/example-report-name/year=2021/month=21.    Open the Amazon Athena console.2.    On the Query editor tab, enter a command similar to the following:CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE test_cur_partitionprojection(  `identity_line_item_id` string,  `identity_time_interval`
