Root Name of Teams to be generated

 

 

A number is appended to the end, i.e. Root-01, Root-02 when the teams are actually generated.  The wizard generates an error if the root name plus the appended number is greater than 20 characters. Team names should be composed of alpha-numeric characters and may include underscore, dash, spaces, or period special characters. However, it is recommended that unique names be used due to the file structure naming convention in ANGEL, i.e., Team-01 and Team 01 have the same file name: Team_01. Other special characters should not be used.
