Append Satellite

The string to append to Satellite names.

The Accelerator derives each Satellite table name from the object's Business Name and the Business Subject of its attributes, combined with this affix, joined by the Object Separator and positioned according to the Suffix Or Prefix Object setting — with the default prefix behavior, the Customer Business Name accelerates to the SAT_Customer Satellite. Link Satellites and Reference tables use their own affixes instead.

When to Change This Setting​

Change it to match your naming standard for Satellite tables. Set it before accelerating — the affix is baked into object names when the Accelerator creates them, so changing it later does not rename existing objects.
