Renaming MembersLocate this document in the navigation structure

For a specific report, you can define the name you want for any member. The name you choose for a member overrides all the other names of the member (such as caption or description) coming from the cube or model and available for selection in the Member Selector. Therefore, the customized name is displayed in the report and in the Member Selector. If you delete the customized name, the name chosen in the Member Selector (such as caption or description) is displayed again.

In the Member Names tab of the Report Editor, select a dimension, then select the member for which you want to enter a name and click Override.
Note In the Member Names tab, you can enter a name for each member contained in the cube or model, not only for members currently displayed in the report. Even though you do not use certain members, if you decide to display them later, the customized name will be displayed.

To delete the entered name, select the checkbox corresponding to the name you want to delete and click Delete.
