naming convention for flags in table

[Former Member]

I happen to create a lot of custom tables that have a field thats a flag. So I can use this flag field in my custom programs.

What is the naming convention for flag fields.

Here is an example of a table

mandt

lgort

flag

and then in the code

if flag = 'X'

display description of storage location

endif.

I dont want to leave the name of the field as flag as its too generic. Do you folks using a naming convention for such situations. Thank you.

Usually name the flag as per logic, so other developers can understand your code.

for example:

emp_chk type flag
lgort_chk type flag
