Any negative impact to renaming a Project Area?
I can't seem to find any information on if there is any impact or considerations I should be aware of when renaming a Project Area. We are going to be copying work items to a new repository but this article says the project area should be named exactly the same:
https://jazz.net/library/article/522 So I am trying to find out if we'd be ok to either: 1. Rename the source project area before we export the work items. 2. Rename the target project area after all the work items have been imported and copied over successfully. Any help would be appreciated. |

I believe either of those approaches are fine.
The key point to keep in mind is that in the repository, all of those project references are by ID, so you can rename the project area and it will not be affected by the linkages. But in the CSV file, project areas are represented by name, so for the import to work, the name of the project areas in the source repository at time of export (which determines the name of the project area in the CSV file) must match the name of the project area in the target repository at time of import.
