Documentation
Definition
Addresses are managed by the system using the Address key.
Use
The address key is either determined by the system itself or can be entered explicitly. This can be useful if the key should satisfy certain semantic criteria.
Example
If an employee's company address is based on his organizational assignment, the address key can be derived from the personnel area/ personnel subarea.
