Attributions to match Google SKU Groups
Google provides a an API to access SKU Groups such as "Standard On-Demand VMs" or "Cloud Storage".
By having Attributions (and further an overall Attribution Group), we could easily analyse spend based on these. It would be extremely helpful when preparing for GCP Commitments.

There are SKU Groups with CUD SKUs - this will help with CUDs recommendations.

Hello Team,
The customer would like to be able to Filter/ Group by 'Service Item' level, which would provide higher granularity than the existing 'Service', grouping the specific Service costs into subcategories that make more sense to FinOps teams than Service or SKU levels.
On EC2 example, this would be sub categories such as:
EC2 Compute, EC2 Transfer, EC2 NAT Gateway Usage etc.This granularity would be something that shows the cost specificities linked to a certain Service.
Setting up these 'Service Items' would be extremely manual in Cloud Navigator within Attributions, hence it makes more convenient for the customer to stay with CloudHealth data and interface. Having this mid level granularity would be a game changer for the customer, allowing them to move towards Navigator more.
Thank you for looking into this
Kind Regards,
