I want to suggest that CRM should have a feature of dynamic display name for
an entity.
For example, I create a custom entity. Then, I relate it to entity Product.
In the form of my custom entity, I want the lookup field for Product display
the product number (ID) instead of the product name without changing the
values of the entity's data in the database.
Another example, I want to display the customized full name that depends on
what pattern I want to use.
The first example displays only a column, while the second example displays
the concatenation of two or more columns. It looks like formula.
CRM must have the options that this customization will affect either to all
or to only one related entity.
This is possible. I hope this in the future version of CRM.
