Changing displayed title from "ID" to "name" in custom ItemType

Hello everyone,

I've recently created a custom ItemType in Aras Innovator. By default, when I open an instance of this ItemType, the displayed title is the item's ID (which is keyed_name property and it's reflecting the ID value).

What I'd like to achieve is to have the title display the name property instead. Essentially, I want the keyed_name for this ItemType to mirror the name property rather than the ID.

How to adjust this behavior? Any guidance or suggestions would be much appreciated!

  • Hi Krepop,

    In the properties of your new ItemType, there is a property on that property called keyed_name_order. To have name be the keyed name, you'll just type 1 into the corresponding property. By default the ID property has a value of 0, so you might need to remove that as well. You can join multilpe properties by adding incrementing numbers in mulitple properties as well!
