    Alphanumeric key with up to 4 characters, which uniquely identify a message type.

  2. Access sequence

    Key for the access sequence.

  3. Description

    Text that describes the message type.

  4. Detailed data (only the most important detailed data is described here):
    1. Transmission medium

      One-character, numerical key that defines the type of message processing (such as printout, sending by fax).

    2. Time

      One-character, numerical key that defines the time of message processing (such as immediately when the document is saved or at the next selection run).

    3. Partner function

      Partner function that defines the recipient.

    4. Condition access

      Indicates that the message default for this message is to be determined via the condition technique.

    5. Print parameters

      One-character, numerical key that determines that conditions used to define the print parameters (see step Assign Output Devices and Print Parameters).

    6. Archiving mode

      This field controls whether a document is to be printed, archived or both.

    7. Document category

      This field identifies the archived messages and determines whether they are single documents from Agency Business, a document list from Agency Business, and so on.
