Description
An external identifier is a code stored in CiviCRM but has meaning in the outside word. Examples are
- for contacts external_identifier_
- for contribution invoice_number and _creditnote_id
- for campaign external_identifier
This hook gives extensions the possibility generate custom identifiers.
This feature is a more generic version of CRM-20363 (So that can be marked as a duplicate)
