If you change the name or label of a variable on a variable set, it will be changed for all of the catalog items using the variable set.

 

However, if you're just requiring the change on one of the related catalog items, you can do the following:

- Navigate to the specific catalog item which needs to be modified

- Create a UI policy which hides the old version of the variable from the variable set.

- Create a new variable on that specific catalog item with the label you need.

 

Note: ensure this doesn't impact any custom flows or business rules you might have.

Hi @Gulshehara 

 

I think that is the purpose of the variable set, if you make a change at the core, it impacts all places.
