Hi Nikhil

Go to STOCK > ITEM > Open the item you want to replace > Then click the ITEM NAME in the Top left corner and rename it.

@nikhil
You can use Rename Tool for that purpose.Download template and upload the csv with old name and new name.

I ran into the same problem with ERPNext v7.2.14. Same as OP, I can just find the way to rename item NAME, not item CODE. Is it even possible to rename it?

Hi @hulloanson! Have you tried the rename functionality? It will rename your Item Name all throughout the document/transaction it has been used to avoid Table Relationship errors.
