Certain parameters are not mandatory. If, however, a value is not found for a parameter that requires a value, a message is displayed. The error message lists all the mandatory parameters for which values are missing.
Note: To view all parameters in the data entry screen, scroll through the parameters until the "End of Parameters" line is visible on the screen.
Certain parameters, such as job card parameters, require values that are longer than the maximum number of characters that can be entered in the first type of parameter data entry screen. Therefore, another type of data entry screen is displayed for these parameters, as follows:
