Hi Srinivas

The sub-account segment is a second level for main account. some companies use this level to make full control of their segment.

For example, the main account value is Media expenses, the second level (sub-account) can be Newspaper, Magazines, internet, ...etc.

When you use sub-account, it make the sub-account LOV display according to main account.
Hope I can help you
