An organizational unit can be renamed and translated.

## Prerequisites [#voraussetzungen]

You are a **BPM Manager**.

You are on the **Organization** page tab.

## Context [#zusammenhang]

You edit the name of an organizational unit, for example to adapt it to a changed organization.

The name is always entered in the modeling language first. It can be translated into one of the content languages in order to display it to users in that language.

## How to proceed [#so-gehst-du-vor]

1. In the organizational structure, click the organizational unit.

   The organizational unit page appears on the right.
2. To rename the organizational unit, click the edit icon next to the name in the right-hand page header.

   The page section for editing and translating the name appears.
3. To change the name, click in the name field.
4. To translate the name, click the **toggle icon**.

   The display switches to two-column mode.
5. Select the target language, enter the translation for the name and repeat the process to translate into further languages.
6. To confirm the changes, click **OK**.
