Documentation

Use

Salutation controls how print programs fill the line for a salutation in a letter.

Dependencies

You determine salutations in Customizing in the IMG activity Define Salutations.

In addition to the default settings, you can also use the processing mode for the business partner to store your own salutations. You can then use these instead of an automatically generated salutation, to suit your requirements. You will also need to adjust your print program accordingly.

Example

You want to use salutation 1 Dear Mrs. for female business partners belonging to the category natural person.
