First / following citation of same item different

(Zotero Version 4.0.17 Standalone, Mac OS X 10.9.1)

What I need (what my university wants) is this

- first citation of an item must be exactly like in bibliography, e.g.

Hopfenbeck, Waldemar (1998): Allgemeine Betriebswirtschafts- und Managementlehre: das Unternehmen im Spannungsfeld zwischen ökonomischen, sozialen und ökologischen Interessen. 12., durchgesehene Auflage. Landsberg/Lech: Mi, Verl. Moderne Industrie.

- every following citation of the same item can be abbreviated, e.g.

Hopfenbeck, Waldemar(1998)

Citations are in footnotes. I'm trying to write a style myself (beginner), pointing me in the right direction would be ok.
  • you can take a look, e.g., at the Chicago manual of style (full note) style, which does that. The basic idea is to test for position
    <if position="subsequent">
    would have the short versionand
    <else> the long version.
  • Thank you, that was very helpful!
