Changing a site mnemonic

In Oracle InForm User Management Tool, you can change the site mnemonic through the user interface. However, in the MUL Template or the .DAT file, the site mnemonic is the unique identifier for the site, and it cannot be changed.

If you need to change a site mnemonic, we recommend you edit the site through the user interface. For more information, see Viewing and modifying site details.

If you want to change a site mnemonic using the MUL Template or .DAT file, you can:

  1. Create a new site with the new mnemonic and same name as an existing site.

    For more information, see Creating sites.

  2. Associate any site or sponsor users assigned to the existing site to the new site.

    Some users may be automatically assigned to the new site due to an auto-association.

    For more information, see Associating a user with a site.

  3. Terminate the site with the original mnemonic.
