Screens that have dual purposes should update their titles accordingly.

I like Create New - it
don't mean to hijack the thread but on the Create new pages would like
to see the pattern used in webtools to provide all the related Create
New related to the one being created.
So something is created all the links to what else needs to be created
is shown.

The OFBiz UI is very inconsistent in the terminology for creating
something new - for example creating a new order, a new fixed asset, a
new party, etc. Some screens are titled New [Artifact], others are
titled Create [Artifact], and lately Edit [Artifact].
Can we agree on one term and add it
...and even Create New [Artifact] !!! :-)
My proposal is to use New [Artifact] everywhere.
I faced the same issue with the create buttons. I changed many of them
using the New [Artifact] pattern.
This is why now I suggest to use the same for the title.
Thank you,

from a UI point of view, New.
from a programing point of view Create.
I think how Edit got into it was,it assumes that there is already data,
so on the edit page is a New link.

I like Create New - it removes all ambiguity.
