Ability to change name of process / business object and retain references

[Billy.Kidney]

When a process or business object's name is changed all references to that process or business object are lost.

This great affect reusability and results in artifacts with improper names to retain references.

Proposed Solution:
Artifacts have a NAME (static for DB), LABEL (shown in GUI for ease), and DESCRIPTION. This will allow artifacts to have their LABEL updated easily without breaking any references to that artifact.

Hi @Billy.Kidney ,

Thanks for your suggestion. What you describe is actually the behaviour that we have today in the WorkHQ Digital Workers offering (previously 'Next Gen RPA'). We manage object or process linkage via an AssetID, rather than Asset Name, meaning that you can change the name without breaking the link to the embedded asset.

So, in short, this feature is 'delivered' in WorkHQ Digital Workers. 

Thanks,

Tom
