+    This concept is similar to Taler's merchant backend instance identifiers.

+  Partner ID
+    In German, this is called "Kunden ID" (= Customer ID).
+    One partner can have multiple "participants", which are identified by user IDs.
+    
+    Practical example:  A company has one Partner ID.  Each person at the company
+    that can access the company's bank accounts gets their own User ID.
+    When the person is indirectly accessing the bank server (for example via
+    a client server application), an additional "System ID" is created for this
+    "technical subscriber".  When there is no technical subscriber, the System ID
+    must be the same as the User ID.  Usually the System ID is optional though.
+
+    The ``(partner, user, system)`` triple uniquely identifies a subscriber.
