SwapAliaswithPrincipalName old name in sub and vue files
Posted: Tue Apr 09, 2019 8:03 pm
Hi all
I'm playing with SwapAliaswithPrincipalName, in particular I want to test how the new name works in subsets and views
My scenario:
1. Created 1 public subset, 1 private subset, 1 public view, 1 private view
2. Set a TempAlias for my test element
3. Ran a process calling SwapAliaswithPrincipalName and deleting TempAlias after
4. Restarted TM1 server
5. Checked the element was renamed correctly
6. Checked the element showed up in the subsets and views I created previously.
7. Checked sub files: the old name is still there
8. Checked vue files: the old name is still there
9. Checked all the aliases (to make sure the old name was not left anywhere)
10. Tried to Copy-Paste the old name in dimension subset editor, result > element not found.
Even though the new name works fine in subsets and views (I'm still going to do a few tests with data), I'm concerned about the old name in sub and vue files.
Does anybody have experience using SwapAliaswithPrincipalName in PROD?
What do you think about sub and vue files? How come they contain the old element name and it works when opening in Architect?
