Modifying Entity Properties

You can modify the category name, report name, deployment name, query object name, parameter object name, and cube object name based on your requirement. This modification reflects only to your local system and not the main database.

For example, if you modify category name ‘Demo’ as ‘Demotest’, the parent category remains the same and the category name changes only in your local system.

On the iPackager name.conf screen:
