# Suspend a Cloud account

Suspend an account when there’s a budget constraint or the account owner isn’t available in the organization. Only admins and account owners can see the suspended accounts.

## Before you begin

To suspend an account, it must have a suspend profile and be managed by CAM. For more information, see [Set up suspension of an AWS account using service control policy](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/it-operations-management/cloud-account-management/configure-suspension-policy.md).
