creationtoindicateiftheJobCreationisworkingontheoriginalorthecopy.
Withoutruntimeparameters,thesamefunctionalitywouldrequiretwojobpresets.Sothisusecase
becomesimportantforrelativelycomplexpresetswhereduplicatingthepresetcreatesamaintenance
issue.
External sorting scenarios
Externalsortingbenefitsconsiderablyfromruntimeparameters.
Especiallyincaseofpostalsorting,therecanbeaneedforparametersthatvaryperjob,suchasinten-
deddeliverydate,trackingid,andmore.

Thevalueforametadatapropertycouldbesuppliedthrougharuntimeparameter.Thesecouldbe,for
example,theproductiondate,orthenameofthecurrentoperator.
