Concept: Customer Central Account Naming Conventions
Workday assumes that accounts with the same name belong to the same individual. When a
user signs in to Customer Central, Customer Central attempts to authenticate to other
tenants as the currently signed-in user.
This table suggests naming conventions for Customer Central account names. Disregard the
convention if it doesn't meet the naming criteria.
