Yes, exactly. Thanks Jacques for sharing references. ======= When changing the name of a field, or deprecating and replacing a field that does not require deprecation of the entire entity, then follow the same pattern leaving the old field there: a "old" prefix added to the field name, change the original first letter to upper case, and specify the column-name for the field so it is the same as the original field name. For example if you are changing the "uomId" field to a new name then change the field name to "oldUomId" and specify a column-name of "UOM_ID". Just as when replacing and entity, make sure to write a service to move the data from the old field to the new one. =====
