ci App Naming Standard

Applies to Platform1 versions 7, 8, & 9.

App ID Naming Pattern

  • Recommended app ID pattern for your custom apps:
    • [Company][App group][Operation]
    • For example:
      • KFC_INV_IT - Inventory Transfer
    • Use “GEN” (generic) as the company for apps that are (or can be) used at more than one company.
    • To future proof your system, use the company part of the app ID, even if you only currently have one company using your ci system.
  • App ID pattern of “standard apps” that come with ci:
    • [ERP system][App group *or* department *or* module][Operation]
    • For example:
      • JDE_INV_IA - Inventory Adjustment
