Globally unique identifier of an organization in the form that ORG-ID.guide defines: the code of the list (register) that issued the identifier, a hyphen and the identifier from that list. For example, GB-COH-09506232 is company 09506232 in the Companies House register (list code GB-COH). IATI and 360Giving data write organization identifiers this way. The Open Contracting Data Standard keeps the two parts apart: the list code in identifier.scheme (org_id_scheme) and the identifier in identifier.id. The registry pattern accepts identifiers without spaces; each list code maps to a registry record through mappings.orgid.
