The tab holds the basic data of the partner: type, identifiers, address, contact details and economic activities. Some fields are shown only for a particular partner type or depending on company settings, which is stated next to the field.
===== Meaning of the data =====
* //**{Individual}**//, //**{Business}**//, //**{Temporary}**// — Partner type.\\ For a partner marked as //**{Individual}**// an incoming invoice cannot be saved; business events with an individual are described on the page [[brix:en:inc_invoices:fizicka_osoba]].

* //**{VAT Status}**// and //**{Check Date}**//\\ For partners with a registered office in Croatia, the VAT status of the entrepreneur and the date the check was performed on the [[https://porezna.gov.hr/RpoProvjeriObveznikaPdvWeb/upit/jednostruko|Tax Administration portal]] are entered. The data is used in the VAT calculation.

===== Entering a partner =====
The procedure for entering a new partner and the naming rules are described in [[brix:en:partners:novi]].
===== Partner code =====
The //**{Code}**// field is shown if so set in the company settings, with the **//G_SIFP//** switch.
The code is used primarily to make customer entry easier when issuing invoices on fiscal scales. The fiscal scale recognises the code when it is entered for issuing R1/R2 invoices.
* The code can have at most 6 characters.
* It should preferably be short and alphabetic, since entering digits on the scale is more complicated than letters.
* It should preferably be associated with the customer's name. E.g. for a partner named "MICRO PROCESS" the code can be "MP".
The customer code must not be "K", "OTP" or "IZD", as those names have a special meaning on the fiscal scale.
