BibTeX, biblatex and biber ⇒ Shortauthor introduction

[nxnx]

Hey guys and girls,

I am using biblatex with APA style and got the following issue (see attachment). For references related to company names I use the shortauthor field. But biblatex introduces the shortauthor by writing the full author together with the shortauthor (like its common for abbreviations) when it appears for the first time.

Therefore I have a lot of these introductions in my list of figures and also some in my text (I dont rly wanna have them at all since the shortauthors I use are rather self-explaining).

Does anybody have an idea how to suppress the introduction. I couldnt find anything in the documentation.

Minimal example:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[]{scrartcl}

\usepackage[backend=biber, style=apa, babel=other, doi=false]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{Masterarbeit.bib}

\begin{document}
    \parencite{kas2016}\newline
\end{document}

%@Online{kas2016,
%    author      = {{KASTO Maschinenbau GmbH \& Co. KG}},
%    shortauthor = {Kasto},
%    title       = {Unitower C Langgut},
%    }
