Dear Sathya,

SAP does not allow you to rename SAP Query & Info set at a same time.

Note:

The system has to lock the following objects before you are able to use the Rename SAP Info set function:

• User group catalog
• Info Set catalog
• Query catalogs for user groups to which the Info Set that you are renaming is assigned,
• Queries using this Info Set

Once all these locks have been set, the system can carry out the function.

Renaming an Info Set can, however, be very time-consuming. These locks may also prevent other users from working in the system for as long as it takes to rename the Info Set.

Thanks & Regards

Dear Satya,

Procedure to rename Infosets.

• Choose Rename on the InfoSet: Initial Screen dialog box.This takes you to the Renaming InfoSets dialog box.
• In the From field the system proposes the InfoSet that you are currently processing.If you want to rename a different InfoSet, type its name in the From field.
• Type in a new name for the InfoSet in the To field.

Thanks & Best Regards,

Dinu

Hi

If you are using the Standard (client specific) area for your queries: then you can:

1. export your query and info set to text file via SQ02 or program:RSAQR3TR 
2. Open text file in notepad or similar; and rename both query and info set (find and replace all instances in file). Note: the length of the name must be the same (text file is character specific).
3. Upload the text file. It will create new query and info set combination.
