Consider a system in which the id for an account is auto-generated when the account is created. We want to specify that the id is created and that it can be used to refer to the account later in the storytest.

|''add''|12.00|''to account''|id1|

|'''check'''|''account''|id1|${account}|

In the tables above, ''id1'' is a ''name'' for the id that's created. The code for this, in Java, follows. Here the ''Variable'' holds a value:
 * It's assigned a value in ''createAccountNamedWithId()''.
 * It's read in the methods ''addToAccount()'' and ''account()''.
