Editing Names and Descriptions of Objects in the Siebel Analytics Web Catalog

You can use the Manage Catalog feature to edit the names and descriptions of objects in the Siebel Analytics Web Catalog. If you rename an object, you can maintain references to the previous name to prevent possible broken links. This creates a shortcut to the renamed object using the previous name.

The Manage Catalog feature is available to the Administrator user ID and to users with appropriate permissions.
