# A two-level namespace replaces an object affix, not an extension-member affix
|
|
|
|
## Description
|
|
|
|
Current AppSource naming guidance accepts a namespace with at least two levels, such as `Contoso.Rentals`, instead of a registered prefix or suffix on the names of objects the app owns. The namespace does not qualify members added to another publisher's object: fields, keys, controls, and actions introduced through table or page extensions still share the target object's flat member namespace and still need the registered affix.
|
|
|
|
## Best Practice
|
|
|
|
Choose one collision strategy for owned objects: a registered affix or a globally meaningful namespace with at least two levels. Regardless of that choice, apply the registered affix to every member added to a base or third-party object. Keep the affix configured for AppSourceCop so member validation remains deterministic.
|
|
|
|
See sample: `two-level-namespace-replaces-object-affix-not-extension-member-affix.good.al`.
|
|
|
|
## Anti Pattern
|
|
|
|
Using `namespace Contoso;` as though one level satisfied the AppSource alternative, or declaring `namespace Contoso.Rentals;` and then adding an unaffixed `Loyalty Points` field to `Customer`. The namespace distinguishes the extension's own objects; it cannot disambiguate members on Customer.
