Code for renaming EPMDoc Number and Filename

I'm using the code shown in PTC CS150421 to rename (number and filename) for CADDocs.

EPMDocumentMasterIdentity masterIdentity = (EPMDocumentMasterIdentity)master.getIdentificationObject();

masterIdentity.setNumber(number);

IdentityHelper.service.changeIdentity((Identified) master, masterIdentity);

master = (EPMDocumentMaster) PersistenceHelper.manager.refresh(master);

WTKeyedMap docCadNameMap = new WTKeyedHashMap(1);

docCadNameMap.put(master, cadname);

EPMDocumentHelper.service.changeCADName(docCadNameMap);

The problem I'm having is when opening in Pro/E, I get file cannot be retrieved. I see downloaded successful and see it in the workspace. The number and filename all show the new name in the PDMLink UI. Even the filename on the content tab updates.

I found the answer and thought I would post it for anyone else struggling with this. The filename (cadname in the code) has to be lower case and 31 characters or less (35 with filename extension). The answer is actually in PTC article CS110903.
