variable, it's content (which is assumed to be a number between 1 and 9) will be used to
determine which job info number to use for the iteration number. For example if %
{myvariable} is used and contains the value 9, then Job Info 9 will store the value of the
loop's iteration.
l
Use original Data Stream every time: Select to reuse the original job file received by the
Loop action task at every iteration. If this option is not selected and if the process ends
