In a style I use \printfield{number}. This produces something like

ISO Nr. 827443

The relevant part on page 140 in the manual says:

\printfield[format]{field}

If the <format> is omitted, \printfield tries using the name of the field as a format name.

--> What do I have to write in the brackets to have it produce ISO 827443 only?

Note: leaving them empty via [] does not omit the name of the field.

    Does \DeclareFieldFormat*{number}{#1} (or \DeclareFieldFormat{number}{#1}) help? If not, a MWE would be nice. ... Thinking about it, you probably want \DeclareFieldFormat[standardisodin]{number}{#1}. – moewe Oct 18 '14 at 15:16
  • @moewe I... feel stupid. How exactly do I have to use that? I put it instead of \printfield{number}{#1} and it threw an error. Putting it all in the brackets as well. – henry Oct 18 '14 at 15:25
  • @moewe Pro-user henry can report that \DeclareFieldFormat[standardisodin]{number}{#1} of course was to be used as normal code. It all works as intended now. You could provide your comment as an answer! – henry Oct 18 '14 at 15:27

As it seems that you want to change the appearance of the number field just for those entries that are standardisodin (as defined in your other question here), you can use

\DeclareFieldFormat[standardisodin]{number}{#1}

to get rid of any prefix to the number field for this particular entry type.

If you want to be more radical and do this for all entry types, go with \DeclareFieldFormat*{number}{#1}.
