FTP accounts Global FTP account definitions are used by FTP sources and FTP actions as well, to avoid entering the same account information multiple times
Scheduling Jobs can be scheduled for one time or periodic execution allowing for automatic background processing
Constant substitution Constants can be inserted into the job definition to be substituted with actual values at job execution.
