How to rename a Dynamics 365 CRM OOB Ribbon name?

Requirement

To ensure that the OOB Ribbon name in Dynamics 365 CRM is clear and descriptive for your users, renaming the OOB Ribbon Display Name may be necessary.

In this article, we will provide step-by-step instructions on how to rename the OOB Ribbon Display Name.

Solution

1, Although we can modify the display name of an OOB Ribbon through Ribbon Workbench, it did not take effect.

2, For OOB entities, they all are managed. We can not modify them by exporting the solution, modifying the XML, and then importing it.

3, The final solution is to create a new group and drag the OOB Ribbon into it. 

The following are the testing steps.  

Testing Environment

Product: Dynamics 365 CRM online

Entity: Product

Ribbon: Add Product
