Ability to rename and print Business Identifier label

image

@lubos this is another request related to implementing localizations.
would it be possible to rename the Business Identifier label in Customers tab so that it can be renamed to something suitable to local requirements.

In our jurisdiction they would be used as GSTIN

at present, the details entered in the field are displayed on transactions without their label which is fine. but when we have more than one mandatory identifiers to be printed on documents it becomes confusing without a label and the only option is to include the label within the text field which will cause issues when fetching the identifiers for relevant localized reports where only the text is needed.

suggestion is to develop the possibility to rename the field label and if renamed, print the label preceding the text entered in the field. this will retain the functions of the present field (key) while providing improvements.

This generic field is obsolete. It will be replaced by country-specific custom fields from localizations.

What is a country does not have a unique identifier, will it remain as unique identifier?

so any business identifiers of Customers need to be entered as a custom field in localizations?
same applies to Suppliers ?

@Edna_Ishaya, your question is not clear. If a country does not use unique identifiers, how can something remain as a unique identifier? Can you illustrate what you mean with a screen shot?

Exactly.
