3.5.1 Renaming a document

You are able to rename objects (documents, folders, workspaces, etc.) by clicking on  |  Rename  for the object. From here you will be able to either provide a new name or select an old name from the drop down list and set the radio button to be "previous names". Clicking on Rename will then make the required change.

3.5.2 Descriptions

Descriptions are displayed beside the names of objects within Business Collaborator. They give supplementary information about the object they describe to users of the system. For instance, they may indicate the types of files which should go into different folders. Descriptions are often added when a document or folder is created. They can also be added later, or existing descriptions modified by:

• Click  |  Edit Description  . (This will bring up a page as shown in Figure 3.5-1.)
• To enter the new or edited description in the system, click "Save new description"
• To return to the original version of the description, simply click "Clear changes"

Links to other Business Collaborator objects can also be stored. Section 5.3.4 describes the details of web links (URLs) for objects in a Business Collaborator folder.
