invalid namespace prefix while creating Table in Dictionary DC

[Former Member]

Hello,

We have configured JDI along with name server. We have configured namespace prefix as abc.com/appln.

We can successfully create the Dictionary DC. But whenever we try to create a table in dictionary DC, it is throwing error saying invalid prefix.

Is there any specific naming convention to follow?

Please help!

Hi, Abhijeet!

You have to apply the SAP Naming Convention for DB Tables & Indexes:

<b>Uppercase letters, digits and underscore, up to 18 characters

Reserve your individual name prefix (“namespace”) at SAP

</b>

The Name Prefix can be registered at <b>http://service.sap.com/namespaces</b>. The prefixes TMP_* and TEST_* are generally available without reservation to use for testing and prototyping.

Hi Thomas,

Thnx for the reply!

We have not registered any name prefix at SAP till now. Currently, its not allowing to create table even with TMP_* or TEST_* prefixes. Is it necessary to reserve a name prefix at SAP marketplace?
