# Resolve - Agenda Item Name and Short Name behaviour

## A brief explanation on typical behaviour when editing the Agenda Item Name or Short Name fields in an Item.

 

By default, the **Short Name** field — used as the "Bookmark title" in PDF document output — is automatically populated to match the **Agenda Item Name** set when the item was created. Any subsequent changes to the **Agenda Item Name** will also update the **Short Name** field once the page is saved and refreshed.

However, if the **Short Name** field is edited separately and the page is then saved, it will differ from the **Agenda Item Name** and will remain as manually edited.

If this occurs and you want the two fields to match again, manually update the **Short Name** field to match the **Agenda Item Name**, then select **Save Changes**.
