For backward compatibility, a special naming convention for methods that convert to or from properties is used.

Name	ReqDate	Symbol (typed as string)
Label	@SYS18075 ("Requirement date")	Name or Label
FeatureKey	ReqSchedAction	FeatureKey
EnumValue	0	Value
Position in AOT	First (Index = 0)	Index

This example is from the ActionBasicDateType base enum.
