  To use dual names, users must first create a dual name object in the Data Services Designer. This object will contain two names for the same object. The first name is the primary name, which is used to identify the object in the system. The second name is an alternate name, which can be used to provide additional context or clarity when referring to the object. 
  
  Once the dual name object has been created, it can be used in Data Services jobs and transformations. When referring to the object in a job or transformation, users should use the primary name.
