Hi everyone,
I would like to change the display name for the Account table in a solution. However, when I open the Account table in the solution and change the table display name, it also gets changed in my other solutions. In other solutions that use the Accounts table, the display name of that table should be different.
Is it possible to somehow change a table display name in only the solution context? I'd really not want to have to resort to having countless Power Platform environments, just so I could have different display names for the Account table.
When you change the display name in your solution, you are changing the displayname for the Accounts table in that environment, not the solution.
You say, 'in only the solution context', but a solution is a group of items applied to an environment, so it applies those grouped items to that environment, not in its own bubble outside of the environment.
If you want separate names for the table for different things, you should either have more environments, or modify your Apps to show a different name rather than changing the Table name itself (in the case of canvas Apps).
In the case of Model-driven Apps you don't have a lot of choice and changing the DisplayName is the only way I know to achieve this, you'd also need to change the other locations that the displayname is used as well
