German term or phrase: allgemeine Kennung
Folgende Möglichkeiten zur Anmeldung stehen zur Verfügung:

a) Geben Sie als Kennung die Equipmentnummer der gewünschten Anlage und
das dazugehörigen Passwort ein. Diese Informationen erhalten Sie auf der
Prüfbescheinigung. Bitte beachten Sie, dass Sie jeweils die Kennung des
aktuellsten Prüfberichts der jeweiligen Anlage benötigen. Kennwörter früherer
Berichte sind nicht mehr gültig. Sie haben daraufhin Zugriff auf alle
Prüfberichte dieser Anlage, die bisher erstellt worden sind.

b) Als Unternehmen mit TÜV-SÜD Kundennummer können Sie eine ***allgemeine
Kennung*** mit Passwort beantragen. Vorteile hiervon sind, dass Sie somit die
Möglichkeit haben, auf alle Ihre Anlagen einschließlich aller Prüfberichte
zuzugreifen. Außerdem wird die Kennung nicht ungültig. Arbeiten Sie
standortübergreifend oder verfügt ihr Unternehmen über mehrere
Kundennummern, so erhalten Sie ein Masterpasswort.

universal user name/ID
Explanation:
In English we'd normally refer to the account, not the specifically the user name or ID. It's a user name if looks like a name and an ID if it's some sort of code. What they will issue you to gain access to all info related to your company is a universal(ly applicable) user name or ID. It also appears to be non-expiring (wird die Kennung nicht ungültig), so it's a "non-expiring universal user name or ID".
