Creates a new identifier type​

Create a new identifier type (including validity details) which can be referenced by business partner records. Identifier types such as BPN or VAT determine with which kind of values a business partner can be identified with. The actual name of the identifier type is free to choose and doesn't need to be unique. The technical key can be freely chosen but needs to be unique for the businessPartnerType as it is used as reference by the business partner records. A recommendation for technical keys: They should be short, descriptive and use a restricted common character set in order to ensure compatibility with older systems.
