The supplied configuration parameters and the permitted values are maintained by the schema installation. You cannot edit the properties of these parameters. You can enable and disable them and specify the actual value for the parameter. Other properties of predefined configuration parameters cannot be edited. Calculation tasks for the DBQueue Processor can result from changes a configuration parameter.
To edit configuration parameters
All configuration parameters and their options are displayed in the hierarchical view. You can also see whether the parameters are preprocessor relevant or if the value should be encrypted before being passed.
Property | Meaning |
---|---|
Enabled |
Specifies whether the configuration parameter is enabled. Check the box to enable the configuration parameter. Uncheck the box to disable the configuration parameter. |
Value | Value of the configuration parameter. |

If it is necessary to define more custom configuration parameters, you can add them in the configuration parameter list item "Custom".
To set up a new configuration parameter
Property | Description | ||
---|---|---|---|
Full name | Full name of the configuration parameter. This consists of the name of the parameter and the name of the parent parameter. | ||
Parameter | Technical name of the configuration parameter. | ||
Display name | The display name supplies the caption for the configuration parameter. The display names can be stored as language dependent. Configuration parameters that do not have a display name are displayed in brackets (<<>>). In addition, a tooltip with the technical name is displayed. | ||
Sort order |
The sort order affects how the configuration parameters are ordered in the Configuration Parameter Editor.
| ||
Value | Value of the configuration parameter. You must enter a value for every configuration parameter. Even the parent parameters which serve no purpose other than providing a structure, may not be empty, otherwise the child configuration parameters cannot be accessed. Some configuration parameters have several permitted values. These are specified using the configuration parameter options and can be selected here. A description of the selected option is also shown. | ||
Description | Description of the configuration parameter. Click Edit to edit the description. | ||
Enabled | Specifies whether the configuration parameter is enabled. If this option is set, the configuration parameter is enabled. If this option is not set, then the whole tree from this point on is considered disabled and the configuration parameter and its child parameters are considered not to exist. | ||
Encrypted | Configuration parameters are marked with this option when they contain encrypted data, for example, passwords. When a new value is entered it is therefore encrypted immediately. | ||
Preprocessor relevant parameter |
This option marked configuration parameters as preprocessor relevant. A preprocessor statement is entered in the associated option field that is used for conditional compiling.
