Rule Builder > Business Object Models > Working With the BOM Property Sheet > Setting the alternate Property in BAL Rules

The alternate property allows you to enter a name that will be used instead of the actual BOM element name in the Rule Editor. This enables you to have more user-friendly phrases for use in BAL. Refer to the Business Action Language User's Manual for further details.

To define a display name:

  1. Click the BOM element in the BOM Explorer pane to select it and display the corresponding properties.
  2. Click the Value field of the alternate property, enter a new name and either press Enter or click outside of the Property Sheet to register the new name.
