Thanks everyone for your thoughts. One more point is we also manage Data Migration By release document so it will help existing uses. Such as https://cwiki.apache.org/confl uence/display/OFBIZ/Data+Migration+by+releases <https://www.google.com/url?q=https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/Data%2BMigration%2Bby%2Breleases&sa=D&source=hangouts&ust=1523684384066000&usg=AFQjCNHrGuEkvs9NdHkf_MUX3tPFJfp2Wg> Handling of deprecated entities is also properly defined at https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/General+Entity+Overview, we can easily follow these steps.
We will change entity name and its occurrence everywhere in code base, provide a data migration service which will be helpful for existing uses. Further on, thanks to Arun's suggestion, there will not be any confusion related to entity name as well. @Nicolas, Arun also suggested two names to avoid confusion, may be anyone of them makes more sense to you. -- Thanks and Regards, *Suraj Khurana* | Sr. Enterprise Software Engineer HotWax Commerce by HotWax Systems Plot no. 80, Scheme no. 78, Vijay Nagar, Indore, M.P.
