E.g. my project is named XXXX_YY_PRZZZ. Is there a way for me to get only the ZZZ part for my label field? Maybe with @project_basename or some variables like that?

Use this expression:

substr( @project_basename, strpos( @project_basename, '_PR' ) + 3 )

I assume string _PR exists in the project name.
