3.6.1 Overview of step properties
A step property is a property defined for a step. Plug-in properties contained in the components used as steps are displayed as step properties in the Step Properties area on the Flow tab of the Service Builder Edit window.
You can set step properties in the following ways:
Directly specify the value of an input property.
Inherit the value by mapping the properties of the previous and succeeding steps.
Elevate a property to a service property to enable the input property value to be specified when the service is set and executed.
Elevate a property to a service property to enable you to check the output property value in the Task Details window.
