To Specify the Distribution Model

We recommend that you use the Z prefix when defining a name. This prefix is reserved for external use, and will not conflict with any SAP naming conventions. Using the Z prefix will also prevent any interference with standard SAP functionality or conflicts with standard SAP terminology.
