Use this activity to view parameter sets for an external file type. The parameter sets are referred to when using a standard external interface, e.g. the External Supplier Invoices Interface, or when using the general External File Assistant in the External Files toolkit.
The purpose with the parameter sets is to be able to link one or more of the available file type parameters to
the sets and thus making it possible to handle different parameters in different situations. One case is when the
parameters to be supplied for input file processing are not the same as when processing an output file, leading to
definition of one parameter set for input file processing and one other for output file processing.
One other possibility is to have different default values for the parameters by having different parameter sets.
When referring to a specific parameter set in the External File Assistant then the parameters will get the
default values according to the definition for that set.
It is not possible to add or modify parameters for system defined file types.
An external file type must be available.
When both available parameters and parameter sets have been defined for a file type then it is possible to perform the step where available parameters are associated with the parameter sets.
