Naming Conventions of Tables in SAP Business One

The document discusses naming conventions for tables in SAP Business One. Most tables have four-letter names, except for those ending in numbers greater than nine which have five letters. Three-letter abbreviations are used to identify common tables like ADM for Administration, CPR for Contact Persons, and ITM for Items. Tables starting with O refer to master tables while A tables indicate historical archives. Document header tables starting with O have the same structure as marketing documents for sales, purchases, and inventory transactions.
