Renaming a Batch Class

You can rename a batch class on the Batch class tree view tab or the Batch Class Properties window. When renaming a batch class, be aware of the following:

  • As soon as you rename a published batch class, it is automatically unpublished (unavailable). The new name goes into effect when you republish the batch class.

  • After you rename a batch class, any existing batches created under the original batch class name retain their references to the original name.

  • Duplicate batch class names are not allowed.

  • If a renamed batch class contains a document class with an export connector referring to the batch class name, you must update each batch class name reference in the connector settings.
