FOCUS column
SubAccountName
The display name of the sub-account: the member account name, the subscription name or the project name as shown in the provider console. Like the billing account name it is a label for the id and can change over time, so grouping is done on the id.
Example
An Azure subscription named “payments-prod” appears here; its GUID is in SubAccountId, and both are visible on the statement line.
Where it comes from, per export
The export column that feeds SubAccountName in each format the platform ingests, and the transform applied. A format with no row does not carry the column; the value is then absent rather than guessed.
| Export | Source column | Transform |
|---|---|---|
| AWS Data Exports, FOCUS | SubAccountName | as is |
| Azure Cost Management, FOCUS export | SubAccountName | as is |
| Azure Cost Details (actual cost) | SubscriptionName | as is |
| Azure Cost Details (amortized cost) | SubscriptionName | as is |
| Google Cloud detailed billing export | project.name | as is |
How Runcost uses it
Runcost shows the name in the drill-down so a budget owner recognizes their subscription without decoding a GUID.
