Question

When creating a global custom table named `abc`, what is the table name that is automatically assigned by the platform?

Options

  • Asnc_abc
  • Babc
  • Cu_abc
  • Dsys_abc

Explanation

When a new custom table is created in ServiceNow, the platform automatically prefixes its name with u_ to designate it as a user-defined table.

Common mistakes.

  • A. snc_ is not a standard prefix for custom global tables; it is sometimes used for specific ServiceNow-developed applications or internal tables.
  • B. abc would not be the table name, as custom tables always receive a u_ prefix.
  • D. sys_ is the prefix reserved for out-of-the-box system tables provided by ServiceNow, not for custom tables created by users.
