4.After Rename has been clicked, SPM will verify whether or not the new plan code is unique. If the code is unique, the plan will be renamed and the first message below will display. If it is not unique, either the second or third message below will appear, depending on the reason it is not unique.

To correct character casing error in a plan code, rename the plan to a unique different value, then again to a corrected value with proper character casing.

 

SPM-Rename_Plan_Duplicate

A plan with entered code already exists.

 

Enter a different code and try again.

 

5.If a currently opened plan was renamed, SPM will reopen it.
