Rename a formula in Data Foundation

[former_member201536]

Question may be simple but I am really struck at this point.

I am in the process of creating the business view where I was successful in creating the Data Connection and now I am in Data Foundation.... this is where I was struck.

In Data Foundation I am trying to create Formula but unfortunately I am unable to rename those in short when I click on Insert Formula there is window opened with name New Formula1 now here I am unable to give any user defined name as Employee Name to the formual.

Kindly help in this aspect.

Thanks for your time.

Hi Siva,

After you create the formula, highlight the field > Hit the F2 button. Does this work?

Hi Siva,

The formula can be renamed from the 'Property Browser' on the left. If you don't see the 'Property Browser', go to View option on the top and select 'Property Browser'.
