About This Feature

Overview

Rename Data Table in WPS on iOS lets you change the name of a data table or dashboard tab in a multidimensional table, making tab names easier to recognize in team collaboration and ongoing data management.

Core capabilities include:

Rename a data table tab to a clearer business name.
Rename a dashboard tab for more consistent view organization.
Keep collaboration easier by showing updated tab names after sync or refresh.

This feature fits project tracking, team collaboration, data organization, and dashboard management scenarios. Renaming changes the displayed tab name and does not change the data or field structure inside the table.

Capability Summary	In a multidimensional table on iOS, WPS lets you rename a data table or dashboard tab so the tab name matches the actual business purpose more clearly.	Microsoft Excel officially supports renaming a worksheet, including renaming from the sheet tab.	Google Sheets for iPhone and iPad officially supports renaming a sheet from the sheet tab menu.	Notion officially supports renaming a database view from the current view name menu in a database.	Adobe Acrobat officially documents Excel-to-PDF and bookmark-related workflows, but it does not document an equivalent spreadsheet tab renaming feature.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: WPS focuses directly on renaming data table or dashboard tabs in the same mobile collaboration workflow. Distinct: Renaming changes the label without changing the underlying data structure.	Compared with WPS: Excel supports worksheet renaming, but the official page used here is centered on worksheet naming rules and general Excel steps rather than a multidimensional table workflow.	Compared with WPS: Google Sheets also supports sheet renaming on iOS, with the action accessed from the sheet tab menu.	Compared with WPS: Notion renames database views rather than traditional spreadsheet worksheets or data table tabs.	Compared with WPS: Adobe focuses on PDF conversion and bookmark workflows instead of spreadsheet tab renaming.

Overall Conclusion
If your main goal is to organize data table or dashboard names directly in a mobile table workflow, WPS is well aligned with that task on iOS. Microsoft Excel and Google Sheets also support worksheet renaming, while Notion focuses on database views and Adobe centers on PDF workflows instead of spreadsheet tab management.
