Customizing the field names (Defense Mapping)

The Reviewer table has several fields that provide information about each record. This includes the life cycle phase of a record, its status, the source, check title, check notes, and review, correction, and verification status information. The fields have names that are displayed by default, but you can customize them to make them more meaningful to people in your organization. For example, suppose you want to make the label for the REVIEWSTATUS field easier to understand. You could change it to something like Description or Review Description.

Once the field labels are changed, the new names are applied to all the sessions in the Reviewer workspace.
