Can I rename labels on the supplier or vehicle form too?

The renaming seen on the walk applies to the customer form. Ask support whether your plan extends it to other forms.

Can I add a new field, not just rename one?

Yes. Custom fields can be added per company on several forms, including bookings and vehicles. That is a separate setting from renaming labels.

Rename field labels on the customer form

You will have the customer form showing the words your team and your country use, for example GSTIN, VAT Number or Trade Licence instead of the default label, without changing what the field does.

The labels on the customer form are not fixed. NShine ERP is used across the GCC, India, Africa, Australia and the USA, and the same field is called different things in each place: the TRN field is a GSTIN in India, a VAT number in the GCC, an ABN in Australia. Each company can rename the labels so the form reads naturally for its staff.

A renamed label changes only the word on screen and on printed documents. The field keeps its type, its validation and its place in reports and imports.

Before You Start

A short list of the labels you want to change and the exact wording your team uses.

Steps

Open Settings and look for the company-level field label or form settings. If you do not see it, ask support on WhatsApp to switch it on or to set the labels for you; the renaming is done per company.
Find the customer form and the field whose label you want to change, for example TRN.
Type the new label, for example GSTIN or VAT Number, and save.
Open Customers › Add and check that the form shows the new label.
Print or preview a customer invoice to confirm the new label appears where the field prints.
Tell the team, and update any internal checklists that used the old name.

Labels commonly renamed

Default label	Often renamed to	Field stays
TRN	GSTIN, VAT Number, TIN, ABN	Tax registration text
State	Emirate, Province, Region	Place of supply
Zip Code	PIN Code, Postcode, P.O. Box	Address text
Credit Period	Payment Terms (days)	Number of days
RCM Applicable	Reverse Charge	Yes/No switch

What This Changes

The customer Add and Edit forms show the new label.
Printed invoices and statements that show the field use the new label.
Reports and the AI Data Import column mapping show the new label, so a sheet with a GSTIN header maps straight to the renamed field.
Nothing changes in stored data; existing customers keep their values.

Tips

Rename labels before training staff, so screenshots and notes match from day one.
Keep labels short; long labels wrap on the invoice print.
Country-specific label suggestions are collected in the Country guides.
