Azure: The Cost History Report filter is displaying special characters in the Subscription Name field.

Products

• CloudHealth

Issue/Introduction

The Cost History Report filter displays unexpected special characters in the Subscription Name field, even though the subscription names appear correctly elsewhere in the Azure Portal.

Cause

Non-standard Unicode characters should be avoided in subscription naming to prevent downstream data corruption. These characters often cause rendering failures and character-encoding mismatches in the reporting interfaces.

Resolution

1. Avoid using Non-standard Unicode characters in the subscription name.

2. If you have already used them, please replace such Non-standard Unicode characters in Azure, so that the subscription name gets updated in CloudHealth and shows the correct name under the filter. 

Example: If you have used En Dashes (–) in the subscription name replace it with hyphens(-)
