Reviewing Autonaming of Objects

You define how Library Central names new objects. You can allow users to assign names, or you can automatically assign a name to the object. Autonaming assigns a prefix that Library Central uses as part of the object's name. When the object is created, the object name includes the prefix plus an incremented number. Autonaming is done based on the object type.

Library Central includes two business objects for each type to be named automatically: an eServices Object Generator object and an eServices Number Generator object. See the Business Process Services Administrator's Guide for more details on autonaming.

  1. In Matrix Navigator, choose Set > Find. The Find Objects dialog displays.

  2. For Type, type *eService*.

  3. Click Find.

    The screen displays several "eService Number Generator" objects you can look at to see how naming works. The automatic names are suggestions only.

    To customize the naming to suit your business processes, see the "Configuring Using Schema" chapter of the Business Process Services Administrator's Guide.
