But iam not able to give this name and create a new table since.

The length is bigger.

Hi,

The SAP naming convention reserves underlining in the second or third position for special objects. Here is SAP naming convention for Customer tables.

Pooled tables and cluster tables:

Length = 10

Name Range: Y* Z* T9* P9* PA9* PB9* PS9* PT9* HRT9* HRP9* HRI9*

Transparent tables:

Length = 16

Name Range: YY* ZZ* (in the append structure, if possible)

Table field:

Length = 16

Name Range: If included using the append structure: YY* ZZ*

All the best,

Alexander
