    3.56 Sub Account Type

    Dataset: Cost and Usage
    Column Type: Dimension
    Feature Level: Conditional
    Data Type: String
    Since: 1.2

    Sub Account Type is a provider-assigned name to identify the type of sub account. Sub Account Type is a readable display name and not a code. Sub Account Type is commonly used for scenarios like mapping FOCUS and provider constructs, summarizing costs across providers, or invoicing and chargeback.

    The SubAccountType column adheres to the following requirements:

    • SubAccountType MUST be present in a FOCUS dataset when the provider supports more than one possible SubAccountType value.
    • SubAccountType MUST be of type String.
    • SubAccountType MUST conform to StringHandling requirements.
    • SubAccountType nullability is defined as follows:
      • SubAccountType MUST be null when SubAccountId is null.
      • SubAccountType MUST NOT be null when SubAccountId is not null.
    • SubAccountType MUST be a consistent, readable display value.
