# Default Format

Tokens are expressed as a prefix (a short name for the entity) followed by a token name. The prefix and token name are separated by a period and enclosed in square brackets with no spaces:

`[PREFIX.TOKEN_NAME]`

For example:

The token for the package number is expressed as:

`[PKG.NUMBER]`

The token for a request's workflow name is expressed as:

`[REQ.WORKFLOW_NAME]`

Certain tokens also support a sub-format. This sub-format is required for certain entities to evaluate to the correct context. For example, `WF` tokens resolve to information related to the workflow, whereas `WF.WFS` tokens resolve to workflow step information. Token sub-formats are included in the prefix, appended to the parent prefix, and separated by a period:

`[PREFIX.SUB-PREFIX.TOKEN_NAME]`

Tokens are evaluated according to the current context of PPM, which is derived based on information known at the time of evaluation. For more information, see .
