Entity Naming Convention

Specifies the naming convention used for entities in your business model. Choose from predefined conventions like PascalCase, camelCase, UPPER_CASE, lower_case, etc.

Options: None, PascalCase, camelCase, Proper_Case, Proper Case, UPPER_CASE, lower_case

The convention is applied when entity names are entered or refreshed in the Business Modeling editors, and to entity names BimlFlex derives during modeling actions (for example, the Header and Detail entities created when splitting an entity).

When to Change This Setting

Keep the default Proper Case for readable, space-separated business names. Pick the convention that matches how your organization writes business entity names, or use None to keep names exactly as entered.
