Default How to add record in Subform which is in another Subform

First, those are VBA procedures, not macros.

Why are you adding a new record to another subform? Why not go to that
subform to add the record, since you need to go there anyhow to enter data?

Maybe you could do something like this from SubB:

Me.SubA.Form.Recordset.AddNew
Me.SubA.SetFocus

This syntax is incorrect on several levels:
Forms![Main]![SubA]![SubB].SetFocus

The hierarchy is Main SubB SubA (where SubA is a subform on SubB). The
fully qualified syntax would be:

Forms![Main]![SubB].Form![SubA].SetFocus

From the main form you could do:

Me.SubB.Form.SubA.SetFocus

or

Me!SubB.Form!SubA.SetFocus

However, from SubB the syntax I provided initially should work, since SubA is
a subform control on SubB.
