Need to clean account names

Posted on by 75

Hi Team,

We have users entering data against an account name which needs a clean up. Like Company A - AUDIT, Company B - RETAIL etc. Since we are on cloud and do not have access to database, I am unable to figure out a functional/OOB way to clean the above data. 

My purpose is to remove '-Audit', '-Retail' from the account names. I have a handful number of items that can be against an account name. 

Any suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks!

    You can export data and update in Excel and import it. So, this is OOB feature.

    Hi,

    Can't you update names with WFs?
