Note: For AWS and AWS GovCloud accounts, the values entered in the Cost center, Business Unit, Department, Project/Application service, Business application, and Environment fields are synced to AWS as tags. AWS restricts tag values to letters, numbers, spaces, and the following special characters: + - = . _ : / @. Any other characters are automatically replaced with spaces. If all characters in a field value are unsupported, the tag is skipped. A tooltip on the form indicates this behavior. These actions are recorded in the execution log.
