What is a Parameter?

A service is comprised of parameters, including a pin number, account number, payment, rate, term, age, or Social Security number. A
parameter is one of the service components. Adding or editing a parameter does not modify or change an existing TUXEDO service.

Saving Your Work

As you are creating and editing services and parameters, it is important to regularly save information to ensure that you do not
inadvertently lose any input. Selecting Save Service can prevent the need to re-enter information in the event of a system failure.

Be sure to exercise caution when you are adding or editing the parameters of a service. Add must be selected before choosing Back
from the Edit Parameters window (shown in

Figure 5-9

) and returning to the Edit Services window (shown in

Figure 5-7

).

If adding a new service or modifying an existing service at the Edit Services window, ensure that Save Service is selected before
