Renaming a Line Item: Don't Break Import Actions

philip.austin

When a solution uses a line item as a source within an import action, whether model-to-model or external source-to-model, the renaming the line item will break the action.

This issue impacts the model builders who need to do a rebuild of the action every time they make a change (if the model builder forgets to rebuild the action, then the import will fail and that breaks the end users (planners/controllers) ability to use the system until the cause is identified and the action rebuilt.)

With our goal to simplify/ease model building so customers and partners can quickly add solution value, this constraint is a time waster and hits confidence.

The solution would be to correct the platform so that the model builder can chnage the name of the line items without breaking any action that uses that line item.
