●      To make entering parameters easier, the parameters for adapters with a large number of parameters are now grouped on tab pages. The functions of the adapters remain the same.

The following adapters have tab pages for grouping parameters:

RFC, File/FTP, JDBC, JMS, Mail, SOAP, CIDX, and RNIF (1.1 and 2.0)

In CDIX and RNIF adapter scenarios, there can be empty tab pages.
