JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Naming Conventions Overview

A JD Edwards EnterpriseOne application is composed of multiple objects. When you create a new object, you must name the object and provide a description. Naming conventions provide a standard for each object type that you can create.

You may further define the characteristics within the object. For example, when you create a table, you may designate a key that consists of more than one field within that table. When you create the index of the table, you should follow the standard for naming that index.

To provide consistency for developers and users, all JD Edwards EnterpriseOne objects follow standard naming conventions. The naming conventions require that each object, such as a table, report, interactive application, or menu, has a unique name. The naming conventions help you identify types of objects and prevent users from creating objects with duplicate names.
