Name display: Hauptkontakt zuerst or Teilnehmer zuerst

On a lead with a parent and a child, which name should the lead be known by? That’s an org-wide choice: Einstellungen → Darstellung → Namensanzeige bei Einträgen (admins only).

OptionThe lead is shown as
Hauptkontakt zuerstThe person who enquired — usually the parent.
Teilnehmer zuerstThe people the request is about — usually the child. The parent is shown alongside.

It applies everywhere a lead’s name appears: the lead itself, calendars, the dashboard, printed day lists and search. A lead without Teilnehmer always shows the Hauptkontakt.

Most kids-heavy schools want Teilnehmer zuerst: the child is the one who shows up to class, so that’s the name trainers look for on the calendar.

The setting is display-only. Automations still address the Hauptkontakt ($contact) and name the Teilnehmer ($subjects) regardless.
