I think every larger organization with an SAP installation has their own rules for naming conventions, within the well known SAP rules for naming customer objects.

Maybe you can find something on the net.

Tks for reply,

but the client has just installed sap system... and now we start some development in abap. So,

the client have not a document about name convention.

The problem not is what is the right name to give at one object, but have a list of all object that we have to name, and so write a document to resume it.

Well for starters, here is a list of (all) possible objects to be created for which naming convention must be established:

Global booleans

Global constants

Global internal tables

Workarea global internal table

Global ranges

Global statics

Global structures (records)

Global types

Global variable (character)

Global variable (date)

Global variable (integer)

Global variable (packed)

Global workarea database table

Parameters

Check boxes

Radio buttons

Workarea local internal table

Local ranges

Local statics

Local structures (records)

Local types

Local variable (character)

Local variable (date)

Local variable (integer)

Local variable (packed)

Local workarea database table

Forms using parameters

Forms using parameters (table)

Forms changing parameters

Forms tables parameters

Tables parameters must not be used anymore

Function Module/Method importing parameters

Function Module/Method exporting parameters

Function Module/Method exporting parameters (table)

Function Module/Method changing parameters

Function Module/Method exceptions

Method returning parameters

I'm not saying this list is complete, for example objects specific for module pool programming are not included, neither are BAdI's (or enhancements in general for that matter), Web Dynpro development (etc.) , but it will help you on your way. If somewhere along the line, some new objects are created at this customer, you should enhance this document.
