  • You can add, modify or delete pre-established dataset parameters.
  • When adding or modifying parameters, use care, as they can potentially change calculations across all datasets.
  • Parameters are pre-defined and are case-sensitive. The Key Type and Value have specific designations for each parameter.
  • Deleting parameters is not recommended, because they may be required for the system to function properly. It is recommended that you de-activate a parameter, rather than deleting it.
  • To import a dataset parameter, complete the appropriate fields in the #DP# Dataset Params worksheet in the Import Numbers template.
