The name format automatically generates a name for a document revision by arranging
name components in a standard code to match naming conventions.
For example, a name format with the name components Type Code,
Document Name, and Revision Number and the
separator -, would be formatted as:

<kbd class="ph userinput">TYPECODE-Name-RevNumber.fileformat</kbd>

In this example, a policy (code POL) named <kbd class="ph userinput">IT Off-Boarding Policy</kbd>,
with revision number 1.0, and uploaded as a
.docx file would have the name:

<kbd class="ph userinput">POL-IT Off-Boarding Policy-1.0.docx</kbd>  
To define a new name format, navigate to Managed DocumentsAdministrationName Formats and click New.{#r_DefiningNameFormats__table_q1l_frc_s4__entry__2}
