Attribute(s)
Alias
Description
A view alias is the unique identifier for the view and may never change. Every view must have an alias. All references to the view (in formulas, agents, etc.) must be based on the alias.
Motivation
View names are related to the function of the view, and therefore subject to change. An alias is an internal name, and can be independent of the function of the view.
Example / Details
The alias should assume the following standard form:V-Description
Where:
V
- indicates that this is a View.
Description
- gives a short description of the view's function. In a mixed environment
(i.e. an application which is accessed by both Notes clients and web browsers),
views that are ONLY viewable to web clients should contain the suffix '_Web'.
Views that are ONLY viewable to Notes clients should contain the suffix
'_Notes'.
Example
The view:
1. All Complaints
Incorrect
Correct
Complaints
V-AllComs
V-AllComs_Web
