Reporting Services subscription jobs naming
SSRS creates subscription job names with the guid of the schedule. Result: messy lists of SSRS Agent jobs and user defined Jobs in SSMS.
SSRS should have a (configurable) prefix like SSRS; job name would be: SSRS.16EDA7C0-D3DB-4E0F-9394-A8E8C570BB77

If implemented, please include some ability to rename existing SQL Agent jobs.

Another idea would be to add folder support for agent jobs and then put the SSRS Jobs in their own folder, see: https://feedback.azure.com/forums/908035-sql-server/suggestions/32896126-sql-server-management-studio-needs-folders-for-job

Since each report has a title, the job should be titled something like SSRS; [report name]. That would be the easiest method of identifying what is doing what.

It really does cause a mess. And after many years, I have some subscriptions which are no longer being used but it is a pain to find and remove them.
