Input
Create File does not capture any file and, if it is a secondary input task, discards the current
data file.
Processing
Create File generates a job file with the contents of it's text. If variables and control characters
are present, they are evaluated at run-time when the task is executed.
Output
The output is the job file. No metadata is generated by the task itself, however if metadata is
present in the job and it is not deleted (in the "Other" tab), it will remain active.
