I have pointed a subdomain directly at the IP of my cPanel server.
Checked it with dig, the subdomain points there.
I created a new Account in WHM, used the defaults.
Checked in DNS Zones, there is automatically an A record for the domain and it shows the DNS provider for the subdomain.
When I ping the subdomain it looks like it finds the IP, but doesn't resolve beyond that.
$ ping sub.domain.cloud
PING sub.domain.cloud (nn.n.n.n): 56 data bytes
Request timeout for icmp_seq 0
Request timeout for icmp_seq 1
Request timeout for icmp_seq 2
^C
