# Registration Issuers

{{variable.Marlin bold}} enables efficient organisation of customer vehicles using registration issuers.

Registration issuers are an additional variable used within Megabus systems to distinguish between otherwise identical vehicle registrations.

Each vehicle registration added to the system therefore needs to be assosciated with a registration issuer and each registration and issuer combination must be unique.

Vehicle registration information can be edited and associated with registration issuers using the **Registration History** list of a vehicle's master file, or when [adding or editing registration information via the business planner](https://help.megabus.com.au/docs/business-planner-1#adding-enquiries-to-the-business-planner).

> add master file link when it exists

Registration issuers can be viewed and edited by selecting **System > Customers > Vehicles > Registration Issuers** from the menu bar.
