PDFs and Field-Naming

In the APPX environment, you always specify field names within the context of an application ID. Therefore, you could specify CUSTOMER NAME as a field name within application TAR, and CUSTOMER NAME as a completely different field name within application TOE, if desired. Because PDFs by definition exist within the application ID (---), you are allowed to use the same name when you define fields or work fields in one of your own applications. Thus, the predefined field USER ID is different from a field named USER ID in the TGL application, for example.
