Hi everyone,
I’d like to rename the core doctype “Project” to “Program” for better clarity. However, I understand that core doctypes are not directly editable.
I’ve been exploring ways to achieve this and came across the concept of exporting the doctype, making the necessary changes in the exported file, and then importing it back. However, I’m unsure if this approach would actually rename the doctype on the server-side after uploading.
I’d greatly appreciate your insights on the following:
- Is it possible to rename a core doctype through export/import or any other method? If so, could you please provide a detailed guide on the recommended approach?
- Are there any potential risks or side effects I should be aware of when attempting to rename a core doctype?
- Would there be a cleaner or more recommended way to achieve my goal of having a doctype named “Program”? Perhaps there are configuration options or custom doctypes that could be utilized?
I’ve searched the forums and documentation but haven’t found a clear answer on this specific scenario. Any guidance you can offer would be extremely helpful.
Thanks in advance for your assistance!
Additional Considerations:
- Specify your ERP Version: Mention the specific ERP version you’re using as some functionalities might vary across platforms.
- Attach relevant screenshots (optional): If applicable, include screenshots of the doctype or configuration settings you’re referring to for better context.
- Consider using code tags (optional): If you’re mentioning any code snippets, use appropriate code tags to improve readability.
