Every Entity automatically contains the standard Quaestor parameters: QEntityName and QEntityID. Both parameters will not be visible during a process dialogue dialog for users. The unique value for QEntityID is automatically given by Quaestor and for QEntityID is unique and is automatically assigned by Quaestor. It cannot be modified by a Knowledge Engineer.
In front of the Name in QEntityName you can see The value of QEntityName is automatically prepended with a prefix that indicates the type of Entity (in this case “_”, which means singular obligatory Entity). Each Entity type has his its own specific prefix. To change the name of an Entity you have to rename the Name within QEntitname.However
