Duplicate Names: System Appends _1

Oracle Life Sciences Data Hub enforces unique naming for each object type in the same container, whether the container is an organizational object—Domain, Application Area or Work Area—or a Report Set or Workflow. (Report Sets contain Programs. Workflows may contain Programs, Load Sets, Report Sets, and/or Data Marts.)

The system enforces unique names only within the immediate container; for example, you cannot have two Program instances named Program_A in the same Workflow, but you can have a Program_A in a Workflow and another Program_A directly in the Application Area that contains the Workflow.

If you try to create a second object of the same type and name in the same container, the system creates the object but automatically appends an underscore and number 1 (_1) to the name. If you add a third object of the same type and name, the system increments the number (_2). For example, if you create a Program called Merge in Application Area 12345, and then create another Program called Merge in the same Application Area, the system names the new Program Merge_1. If you create a third Program called Merge in the same Application Area, the system names the new Program Merge_2.
