On the “Target” tab you can select the target folder where the file will be stored. If you select the option “Overwrite CPACS file each run” the filename will be “cpacs.xml” and the file will be overwritten each time the component runs. If you do not select this option a new file will be written on each run with a filename following the scheme “cpacs_[iteration count]_[timestamp].xml”.

You can define the scheduling of the static input channels on the tab “Inputs/Outputs”. You are also able to add dynamic input or output channels here. Thus it is possible to map single values into the XML dataset via XPATH declaration. Moreover, you can select single values in order to write them in an output channel.

On the “Workflow Data” tab you can select whether to store history data for each component run or not.
