Automatic Name Truncation
Names can contain up to 200 characters. However, the system populates the values for Oracle Name and SAS Name with the value you enter for Name stored in uppercase, truncating the Oracle Name to 30 characters and the SAS Name to 32 characters.
You can change the Oracle and SAS Names.
When you create a new object by uploading a table, view, data set, or column, the system truncates the Oracle Name and also replaces the last two characters with the number 01 or, if an object of the same type with the same name already exists in the same container, the next highest number (in this case, 02).
