Use

If you do not want to put a variable field value to a specific postion on the data medium but a constant value you define in this field the value you want to place to the data record.

Examples

In the tax form RES_TAX_SANWA 'Residence Tax Payment by Sanwa Bank', the second record ('data record') that has to be written to the data medium contains information different for each tax office.

This record carries a '2' on position 1, thus a '2' has to be entered here.
