Fyle has certain form-fields on Expense form in which Projects is one of them. If your organisation has locations or events or units that are under Projects on Fyle, you can change the display name of Projects from the Settings in Organisation view.

Steps to change the display name of the Project field:

  1. Switch to the Organisation view and go to Settings.

  2. Under the Admin Settings, click on the Expenses. You will see the Form Fields section in the dropdown. Scroll down on the Form Fields section to the Default Fields.

  3. Under the Default Fields, you will see the Project as a field. Click on the Project to see a pop-up screen.

  4. On the Field Details, you can change the Display Name to "Location" or "Events" or anything that you prefer at your organisation. In the Placeholder field, you can enter what you wish to inform your employees on the expense form, like "Select or Enter the Location."

  5. You can make the field mandatory based on your organisation's policy by clicking on the box and clicking on Update Field to rename the display name of the project field.

  6. You can see the updated field name on the same page, i.e., Default Fields.

The changes will be reflected on the expense form and other places. Here is the list of places to check the field name in both Web and Mobile.
