Managing Versions, Items, and Paths › Rename Item Process Rules › Rename an Item

Rename an Item

The rename item process lets you rename an item.

Follow these steps:

1. Navigate to the item you want to rename.
2. Right-click the item, and select rename item process from the shortcut menu.

   The rename item process dialog appears and displays the item name you selected.

   Note: The lowercase italic text indicates the process dialog name by the process type, since the process execution dialog names differ to each site.

3. Enter a new name for the item.
4. Specify a placement option:

   Trunk

   Creates a trunk version for refactoring changes.

   Note: This option is identical to the check-out for update process.

   Branch

   Creates a branch version for refactoring changes.

   Note: This option is identical to the check-out for concurrent update process.

5. Select a package from the Package drop-down list, or click the Package button and use the Select a Package dialog to select a package.

   The package is associated with the renamed item.

6. (Optional) Click the tabs to enter and view information:

   Comment

   Specifies comments.

   Note

   Provides notes about the process.

   Click OK.

   The renamed item is a new version and appears in the version view and in the associated package's versions list.
