Changing the name of a field

Hi all, I'm trying to rename a field on the customer. To start with it's just the Customer Id, is there any way of renaming this field without creating a new template? It's just a cosmetic change, just on the html that our call centre sees. I've tried various things but always seem to break the whole app. I used to do a lot of Perl but am very rusty now. Thanks for any advise you can give me. Tim

Hi Tim,
what you can do is create a custom translation file containing just the
fields you would like to translate. This way your customizations would be in
a separate file so it wil also work well with upgrades.
The Developers manual has a little info on that:
http://doc.otrs.org/developer/2.3/en/html/c725.html#lt-how-it-works
Using the Developers manual I created a little demo file called en_Custom.pm
- it is attached. You can store it in Kernel/Languages and restart the
server, it should work seamlessly.
Kind regards,
