Set the Control Table Prefix

When a table is generated for control views, the control table prefix is added to the table name. The prefix can be set at the category and page level.

NOTE:MDM is delivered with a default control table prefix. Updating the prefix is optional.

The control table prefix set at the category level on the Category page’s Vertical View is the prefix to the table name when a table is generated for a scenario > role > task combination for the category. When a table is generated for the control views or required validations, the table name starts with this configured text.

For example, a user can enter the prefix "ttSRTC_" and all control tables for the category are generated with that prefix.

The control table prefix set at the page level on the Task Page page is the prefix in the table name when a table is generated for a scenario > role > task combination that uses this page.

When a table is generated, it follows the naming convention [Control table prefix]_[Page View’s Root Name]_[variant column name or required].

For example, a content page named “Address” has a Horizontal View webRequestAddressHor. The control tables prefix configured for this Category is "ttSRTC_". The task has an active variant configured for the “Country” field. On the Vertical View of the Task Page page for “Address”, the Control Table Prefix is “ttSRTC_RequestAddress_”. When created, the control view table name is ttSRTC_RequestAddress_Country.
