Rename form and KoboSync

I use KoboCollec on Android Tablets and Android phone !!!

My template forms is in this directory /odk/forms/form8.xml
Each forms are saved n XML format in the directory on /odk/instances/“Form8_Date_Time”. (for example : /odk/instances/form8_2013-04-23_15-53-37.xml)

It is possible change the way to named the form saved ? (In adding for example le DevideID or else ?)

How do i do if i have 2 differents device wich are saved the form the same time
Exemple :
Device 1 : form8_2013-04-23_15-53-37.xml
Device 2 : form8_2013-04-23_15-53-37.xml

It will be a problem to use KoboSync after and export a CSV file. I will must to change the name of one of the form !!

You can edit the name of the form when you are saving it in KoBoCollect, however, KoBoSync is super smart and does a cool thing to avoid just this problem. It is possible for two KoBo users to save the same form at the same second, and end up with two instances with the same name. So, KoBoSync renames then during the synchronization, adding the DeviceID.

Rapid Assessment No repeats_2013-04-10_20-48-33.xml will get renamed to:351771046835832_Rapid Assessment No repeats_2013-04-10_20-48-33.xml
