Make Legal Entity from AWS Available in Cloudability Reporting

AWS includes a field LegalEntity
lineItem/LegalEntity

The Seller of Record of a specific product or service. In most cases, the invoicing entity and legal entity are the same. The values might differ for third-party AWS Marketplace transactions. Possible values include:

Amazon Web Services, Inc. – The entity that sells AWS services.

Amazon Web Services India Private Limited – The local Indian entity that acts as a reseller for AWS services in India.


Not "which vendor was used to purchase", but more about "which vendor is the primary product manufacturer". Ex: I can buy RHEL via Redhat, or I can buy it through a VAR and it would look like "CDW" for example. I just need to use Legal Entity to know it's all RedHat, regardless. That's for Security & Compliance (threat assessment) and Procurement (volume analysis and negotiation).

When Procurement is evaluating contractual compliance and purchase volume of Marketplace purchases, the same items can be purchased from different vendors. Not having legal entity available makes it impossible to know exactly which legal entity is responsible for the product procured.
