Hi Henry,
These r the naming conventions to be followed in XI :
1) For Software Component, the naming convention should be :
SAP_<SID>
where <SID> is the system ID if the applicable system
2) For Software Component Version, the naming convention should be :
X.X
which shows the applicable version as of this date. Eg. SAP_ECC is at version 5.0
3) For Namespace the naming convention should be :
http://ERPGenie.COM/xi/<SCENARIO>/<SID>;
where scenario refers to the interface being developed for and <SID> is the component where that object has relevance.
Eg. http://ERPGenie.COM/xi/OrderOutput/ECC will contain all the objects relevant to the Order Output scenario in the ECC system.
4) In Interface Objects ,
a) Message Interface should have the following naming convention :
MI_<meaningful name>_<IN/OUT/AB>
where:
IN = Inbound
OUT = Outbound
AB = Abstract (For BPM)
Remember to evaluate the IN and OUT based on the point of view from the source system to the target system. Eg. If we send an XML message from xEXTERNAL to an IDoc in ECC, then the XML Message is an OUT and the ECC is an IN interface.
b) Message Type should have the following naming convention :
MT_<meaningful name>
c) Fault Message Type should have the following naming convention :
FMT_<meaningful name>
d) Data Type should have the following naming convention :
DT_<meaningful name>
e) Data Type Enhancements should have the following naming convention :
DTE_<meaningful name>
f) Context Object should have the following naming convention :
CO_<meaningful name>
g) External Definition should have the following naming convention :
ED_<meaningful name>
5) In Mapping Objects,
a) Message Mapping should have the following naming convention :
MM_<meaningful name>_<source type>_<target type>
Eg. MM_ORDERSCENARIO_ORDERS05_OrderXML
b) Interface Mapping should have the following naming convention :
IM__<meaningful name>_<source type>_<target type>
Eg. IM_ORDERSCENARIO_ORDERS05_OrderXML
c) Mapping Templates should have the following naming convention :
MT__<meaningful name>_<source type>_<target type>
d) Imported Archives should have the following naming convention :
IA_<meaningful name>
6) In Services
a) Business Systems should have the following naming convention :
SAP<SID>
Where <SID> is the relevant system ID number
E.g.. SAPECC, SAPCRM, SAP46C
b) Business Services should have the following naming convention :
SRV_<XXXXXX>
Where XXXXXX is up to 6 characters to describe the type of service.
E.g. SRV_MAIL, SRV_FTP, SRV_SEEBRG
7) In Adapter Objects,
a) Adapter Meta Data should have the following naming convention :
AM_<meaningful name>
b) Communication Channel should have the following naming convention :
CC_<meaningful name>_<sender/receiver>
E.g. CC_MAIL_SENDER
😎 In Integration Objects,
a) Integration Process should have the following naming convention :
IP_<meaningful name> (Keep to 10 or less characters – ALL CAPS)
Store these in namespace http://ERPGenie.COM/xi/<SCENARIO>;
b) Actions should have the following naming convention :
<meaningful name>
Use Send_ or Receive_ to denote the sending or receiving of messages
Store these in namespace http://ERPGenie.COM/xi/<SCENARIO>/<SID>; where <SID> is system where the action is to be performed.
c) Integration Scenarios should have the following naming convention :
IS_<meaningful name> (Keep to 10 or less characters – ALL CAPS)
