Excerpt

This article explains how to configure the Mask on Name in Personal Details.


Introduction

In APM under Personal Details we have a field called Name that consists of several elements: First-, Last-, Middle-, Title name, etc.

...

Under the Global Options you can set some default format for all the Names in the database, by using Mask.

You can display a name John Marshall Erickson Jr. like this:

- John Marshall Erickson Jr. (separated with spaces only )

- John Marshall, Erickson (without Jr. and with comma before the Last Name)
