Hi All,

I have a parameter say 'A', which is defined at job level and sequencer level (both are having same name). If I modify this parameter at job level , will the value at sequencer level be modified ?

When you call a job from job sequence you have to specify a value for parameter "A", if you use the value of job sequence parameter "A" then the answer to your question is "yes".

I actually think the answer is 'no'.

Are you talking about job parameter's default value?

I agree with Craig. If any job parameter is changed at the job level then it will not be moved up to the calling sequence job. The other way is True, provided that while specifying the default value for that parameter in the job activity, one has given the job sequence parameter.

Sequence Job parameter has high priority than the job parameter called in the sequence.

Default value of the Parameter value will not be effect if the job is called by the JobSequence and if the parameter is been passed by it.
If the whole parameter name is changed, it will not be passed at all. So what kind of Modification it is?

Here's a thought... why don't we wait and see? No sense continuing to thrash.

How can we do that since we are awaiting a description of what you are doing from yourself.

You need to clarify your original question. Without that clarification, you're stuck with two answers - 'yes' and 'no'. Take your pick.
