When putting together salutations and addresses in templates there are several attributes available. These attributes are available for candidates (toEmployee), contacts (toContact) and users (toUser).
The available attributes are:
Salutation
The 'Salutation' in the file determines if a formal or informal salutation is used.
Use the following attributes for a formal/informal salutation:
Remarks
- If no salutation is set in the file, the default from the table item is used.
- If there is no default set in the table item, then the Formal (informal) is used.
Variants (EU, US, ES)
When putting together salutations and addresses, 1 of the following 3 variants is used:
- EU - Europese format: Mr. A. van der Akker
- US - International format: Mr. Michael J. Fox
- ES - Spanish format: Sr. Juan Gomez Antonio
Remarks
- The default variant of a Carerix system is determined by one of the following interface parameters: isInternational(US), isBelgian(EU), isSpanish(ES).
- It is always possible to choose a variant yourself by adding an attribute to one of the codes. For example: formalNameEU or informalNameUS.
- The default language of a Carerix system is determined by the language parameters. The language determines the salutations and addresses (mister / de heer / senor). If no language parameter is set, the language is dutch.
UnknownGenderSalutation
The setting 'UnknownGenderSalutation' determines, if the gender is unknown, what the salutation will be.
EU-variant

Most important differences in comparison to the dutch version:

- Suffix: This field doesn't exist in the Spanish version.
- Second last name: This field is added in the Spanish version.

Translated salutation
Let's say that you use a Dutch system, and you want to use a English salutation in a template. Use the following CxScript code:
<cx:language value="English">
<cx:write value="$activity.toEmployee.openingEU"/>
</cx:language>Lets say that you want to use a salutation based on the language that is set to the person. Use the following CxScript code:
<cx:let name="myLang" condition="$activity.toUser.toLanguageNode.dataNodeID=1465" ifTrue="English" ifFalse="Dutch">
<cx:write value="$myLang"/>
...
<cx:write value="$activity.toContact.openingWithPrefixEU"/>,
...
</cx:language>
</cx:let>Watch out:
The 1465 is a fixed value in your configuration, see the table item "Language" what the ID in your system is for the desired language.
Alternative: Is the whole template in English. Select the system language 'English' in the template file.
Then the cx:language construction doesn't need to be used.
