===== Tag =====

A tag is placeholder used to indicate [[glossary:business_object|business object]]-specific information inside [[glossary:document_template|document templates]], [[glossary:presentation|presentations]], [[glossary:report|reports]] and other elements containing text. When a document is generated from a template in the [[glossary:operation_mode|operation mode]], or a presentation is displayed, the tag is replaced with actual data taken from business objects. For example a template for a customer letter may start with a line that includes a tag:

<code>Dear <<Customer.Name>>,</code>


When a letter is generated for a customer in the operation mode the tag will be replaced with the actual customer name.
