!!Function Naming Convention (IMFN)
The standard naming convention is for functions to start with a single character that dictates what type of function it is – see chart below.
!Professional
In the professional interface the next 3 or 4 characters (sometimes more) are normally taken as an abbreviation of what the function does or from the alias of the table that drives the function.
At line 95 removed 3 lines
!Self Service
In self service though the function type character is always ‘W’ for web component. The second character here comes from the section above on Business Roles to dictate where or by whom this function is used.
The remaining characters are similar in nature to that of the professional interface.
At line 99 removed 20 lines
!Function Types
Supplied functions normally start with one of the characters shown in the chart below which designates what that function is used for. Note that there are some exceptions to the rules when there are one off items but the majority conform to this standard.
