Re: number to id

Hi Helge,

I try to explain why a full enterprise ID would be convenient for me. I 
have a JAVA ValueObject (OgoEnterpriseVO) and a POJO (OgoEnterprise) 
which can insert this VO. In the OgoEnterpriseVO there is an ArrayList 
in which are all persons which belong to the enterprise. If I insert a 
completely new OgoEnterpriseVO, the XML-RPC call doesn't insert the 
assigned persons automatically, I have to do that manually.
In the method I use to link/unlink the persons to the enterprise I use 
enterprise.getById and not enterprise.getByNumber. Thats why for me a 
full enterprise ID would be convenient.

But if you say it is not possible I trust you and I have to change my 
source.
