EPDM Data cards not updating

Part already exists in the vault. Right click rename/or/check out, right click rename, check in. The card is not updating to the new name in the vault view.
We want to be able to rename parts without needing to open them, this generally takes place after designing.
I did find if I:
*Rename, check out, open, clear default properties tab, save, and check in. it then rewrites the part tab in the card not both.
I have tried this multiple ways (one above was the only it worked)

I unchecked "read only" thinking the designers could rename the part in the vault view then rename the card and saving the card. However, when the data card is saved the default tab gets written not the part tab.
If the variables $PRP /$PRPSHEET are bidirectional why does this not work? Do I not have this set up right?
I have talked with my VAR and have looked through the forums still don’t have a clear answer.
Thank you for your help
