Hello. I want to know if it´s possible to do this. In memo form I want when someone writes the name of each recipients appears next to the recipients (in paharentesis) the department field of the NAB.Any solutions??. Thanks

Yes it’s possible. The simplest way is to simply perform a look-up to the addressee’s “Person” document in your Domino directory, using the Notes address as a key. If you just need to differentiate between Fred Smith in Accounts and Fred Smith in Sales though, isn’t that what the OU is for in a Notes address?

Subject: Identifying Users
Rafa,
As Ben states, if the Notes IDs were set up correctly, using organization units (OU), then you would not need to do anything. You would automatically know what group each person is a member of. To use Ben’s example…
Fred Smith/Accounts/CompanyName
Fred Smith/Sales/CompanyName
…already tells you one person is from the Accounts group and the other is from Sales. You can add more OUs to be more specific such as to identify employee location:
Fred Smith/Sales/New York City/CompanyName
Otherwise, you do as Ben suggested in the first part of his posting, namely, retrieve the department from the Person document in the Domino Directory.
