Legal Entities

Legal Form in Entity Names

In most cases, the legal form of an Entity appears behind the name, but sometimes it is necessary to have it appear before the entity name.
For this, we provide a mechanism. You can insert placeholders into the entity name field, which will cause the legal form (or variations of it) to be inserted in place of the placeholder.
The placeholders are:
[LF] for the legal form, being the name of the legal form option
[LFU] ("unabbreviated legal form"): The idea behind it is that some legal form might have an abbreviation, and that abbreviation is used as the option name (so it appears in the legal form select with that value). But when added to the entity name, the unabbreviated legal form should be output. You can then set the attribute "legal_form_unabbreviated" for the legal form option, use the placeholder "[LFU]" where necessary.

This must be done on a case-by-case basis for each entity as necessary. There is no way currently to define, for one particular legal form, that it should always prepend the entity name.
