How to rename an item in D365 F&O 10.0.

42 (NEW
FEATURE)

Have you encountered the following scenario? Your end-user imports or manually creates item
numbers. The item is created and inventory transactions are registered. A few days later you get a
message that the product number does not match the product number on the product because of a
typo.

In version 10.0.42 Microsoft released a feature in preview where you are able to change this.

Follow these steps to leverage the power to rename item numbers!

Navigate to Workspaces --> Feature Management and locate the "(Preview) Rename Item Number"
feature. Enable the feature

Navigate to Product information management --> Released products and open a Product. In my
example I have opened M0003 in an environment with demo date.

Open the tab General here you can see two added menu items.

To change the item number, click the button "Rename item number". In the follow menu enter your
new item number. Please be aware of the safety text:

This task renames an item number and updates all related records across the system.
There are some limitations to be aware of, as in certain cases, it may not be possible to identify all
related records that need updating.

- Serialized or encoded item numbers: if the item number is stored in serialized or encoded format,
such records will not be updated. For example, item number is serialized when stored as a batch job
query parameter. In this case the batch job query parameter will not be updated.

- External systems: the task does not update item numbers stored in external systems.

- Plain text usage: if the item number is stored as plain text, it will not be updated. For example,
batch job logs may contain item numbers as plain text.

- Temporary tables and in memory fields: these will not be renamed using this task. It will be possible
to see such tables as part of the logs.

The item renaming process is thoroughly logged. You can access the logs at `Product information
management > Inquiries and reports > Item number renaming logs` page.

After running the batch job the result is a changed released product with a decent log. This log is also
viewable in the "Item number remaining logs" menu.
In the end a nice result with all our inventory transaction changed!
