I agree with David, also I didn't like to overriding the labels between applications.

To be me clear I like to give a simple example that I didn't like:
in AccountingUiLabels.xml the label AccountingFixedAssetMaintIntervalQuantity has the meaning "Interval Quantity" in AssetMaintUiLabel.xml the same label AccountingFixedAssetMaintIntervalQuantity has the meaning "Meter Reading"

I prefer that in this case it was :

AccountingFixedAssetMaintIntervalQuantity --> "Interval Quantity"
AssetMaintFixedAssetMaintIntervalQuantity --> "Meter Reading"
Or perhaps "AssetMaintFixedAssetMaintMeterReading" as they do mean different things (BTW, not sure if "Meter Reading" is the best term for whatever this is applied to, but I guess that's irrelevant for the discussion...).

Then we're back to the problem of reusing the accounting screens. The UI label used in the accounting screen is AccountingFixedAssetMaintIntervalQuantity. So creating a new label in asset maint will require creating a new screen.

It's an interesting conundrum... it is probably more work to create a screen just for this than it is worth...

I planned on working on the asset maint screens after I'm done with my framework stuff. Some of the forms were C&P from accounting to asset maint instead of using the extend feature - maybe because extend had a bug in it (which has been fixed). I'll try to remove the UI label redefinitions in the process.
