ADR#005 ​

Topic ​

Rename Certificates to Land Titles to accurately represent SHM (Sertifikat Hak Milik) and HGB (Hak Guna Bangunan), which are land titles rather than generic certificates.

Problem ​

The term Certificates is too generic and does not accurately describe the information being managed by the property matchmaking system.

The system specifically handles land titles such as:

  • SHM (Sertifikat Hak Milik)
  • HGB (Hak Guna Bangunan)

Using Certificates may cause confusion because it can refer to various types of property or supporting documents, while SHM and HGB represent specific land rights/titles.

Decision ​

Rename the Certificates feature to Land Titles.

Reason ​

The terminology should accurately reflect the business domain and be understandable to end users.

Land Titles is more specific and appropriate for SHM and HGB than Certificates. It also provides a clearer foundation for adding other land-right types in the future.
