Rename extended data elements in event definitions
In the event definition editor, you can rename any of the extended data elements in an event definition. If you rename an extended data element and it has the same name and data type as an extended data element in the parent event definition (or in any higher-level parent in the same inheritance hierarchy), then the renamed extended data element will override the extended data element of the parent.
To rename extended data elements in event definitions:
Procedure
In the event definition editor, highlight the extended data element that you want to rename.
What to do next
After you have renamed an extended data element, you will probably want to specify a data type for it, as described in the topic "Specifying data types of extended data elements."
