Renaming a Publication

Rename a Publication lets you change the default name of a publication, provided that the naming convention rules are respected.

Before you begin: Select the publication you want to rename.
  1. From the Product Modification section of the action bar, click Rename a Publication .

    The Publication Rename dialog box appears and displays the following options:
    • Publication Name

      This editable box displays the current name.

    • Automatic reconnection

      This option is available only if other objects are pointing the selected publication.

      By default, this check box is selected the first time that this command is launched. But if you clear this check box, it remains cleared in the following sessions; your last selection is kept in memory.

    • Rename also pointed element

      This option allows you to rename the publication along with its pointed element.

      By default, this check box is selected.

      Important:
