If you have mapped a Primary Salutation to your template, but still see the following in your control report as an exception. "The reported error was: Error reported from RE on saving the record from the area map "XYZ". The reported error was: Required Field Missing: Primary Salutation", you should check to see if you have also populated any field being used to generate the Salutation.
For example, if you selected a formula for Primary Salutation that contains just the first name, but did not populate the first name field in your template, you will see this exception. This is also true for the Nickname, etc.
