Renaming Objects

You can rename objects to make the object name more meaningful to you. For example, you can change the "High Products" filter name to "Top 3 Products."

To rename an object:

  1. In the global header, click Catalog.

  2. In the Catalog page, search for the object that you want to rename. For more information, see Searching the Catalog.

  3. Click More and select Rename. The Rename dialog is displayed.

  4. Type the new name of the object.

  5. (Optional) Click Preserve references to the old name of the item.

    Use this option to specify that existing references to the previous name of the object are maintained. This creates a shortcut with the old name that points to the renamed object in the catalog. If you do not select this option, then existing references break.

    Note:

    This option is not available for all objects.

  6. Click OK.

You can also rename views. For example, you can change the name of a view from "Sales Forecast 2014" to "Forecast 2014."

To rename a view:

  1. Open the analysis for editing.

  2. Click on the Results tab.

  3. In the view, click Edit View.

  4. In the toolbar of the view editor, click Rename View. The Rename View dialog is displayed.

  5. Enter the new view name.

  6. Click OK.
