By assigning a prefix, the automatic ID assignment enables you to identify the users who created database items. Prefixes in combination with a sequential number are assigned as identifiers and specified for the Identifier attribute. Each user has a prefix. If no individual prefix has been explicitly assigned to users, the standard database prefix is assigned automatically.
Prerequisites
Your user account has been assigned the Database administrator function privilege in ARIS Administration.
You have the Prefix management function privilege.
Prefixes were assigned to users.
