Renaming Files and Folders
The project member rights and the object type determine who may rename which objects (see Objects and Permissions).
Renaming Folders
Folders can only be renamed in enaio®. The prerequisite for renaming folders is that the project member is also anenaio® user.
enaio® users need to open the root object location to rename a folder in an enaio® client (see The Root Object). There you can rename the desired folder or register.
Renaming Files
There are different ways to rename files since they can have different origins in enaio® coLab:
Project room owners and project members with a corresponding user-based role can rename files in enaio® coLab. Standard project members and project members with the Guest role are not allowed to rename files in enaio® coLab.
Files added from the local file system or from enaio® based on the coLab upload type can be renamed in the files view in enaio® coLab. They can be recognized in the directory structure by the 'Rename file' icon.
To rename, click the 'Rename file' icon and change the title or description of the file in question in the input form that appears. You can enter up to 200 to 500 characters including spaces in the Title and Info fields. The number above the input field indicates the number of characters you have already entered.
Files that have been renamed in enaio® coLab are also renamed there since they are synchronized with the coLab register in enaio®.
Documents checked out in enaio® cannot be renamed in enaio® coLab. In enaio®, documents are checked out when editing their contents in order to prevent access conflicts with other enaio® users. If such an enaio® document is linked to an coLab project room and is currently being edited in enaio®, it cannot be renamed in enaio® coLab. When such an attempt is made, the coLab user will be alerted via a message. Once the enaio® document is checked back in, it can also be renamed again in the coLab project room.
Files added from enaio® based on an enaio® object type can only be renamed in an enaio® client. They can only be renamed by project members who are also enaio® users.
enaio® users need to open the root object location to rename files in an enaio® client (see The Root Object). There they can rename the desired files.
If you have renamed folders and files in enaio®, you may have to update the contents of your browser tab in enaio® coLab so that you can see the new names. Click the Refresh icon in your browser to refresh.
If the features described above are not available to you, then it may be because you have been assigned a user-defined role that does not contain the corresponding rights. Contact a coLab administrator or the project room owner if you have any questions or if you need these rights.
