@frankalmaraz Why would you change column names ever. Databases are eternal monoliths and you have to life with your mistake :blobcateyes:

@MiaWinter exactly!! I definitely don't change column/field names, but we have so many new people in IT who simply don't know any better... they think they're being "helpful" by changing these names to something they think is more meaningful... then everything breaks. 😆🤣😭

@frankalmaraz I mean in my case I always have a management-layer between me and the DB, so I do not care about the names that much anyway.
