00104: The <value> parameter is missing a syntax dialog explanation in the item description

  • Solution

The tool that created the result is missing the required dialog explanation for one or more parameters. Parameter explanation is important to whomever is using your package, so they need to understand each parameter and its use.

Solution

Using the Item Description editor, provide dialog reference descriptions for each parameter.

  • Double-click the message in the Prepare window to open the Item Description editor.
  • Click Edit to start editing the item description.
  • In the Syntax section, provide informative text for the Dialog Explanation of the parameter.
  • Click Save and close the Item Description window.

More information

When using the Prepare window to open the Item Description editor, the information you enter is saved back to the tool.
