Select the check boxes to use variables to provide inputs.

If the Variable check boxes are selected, select the variables in the list to provide the inputs; otherwise, type the values to use in the inputs.
If you do not provide a value for the input, the task sets the input value to the default value for the data type that you selected. For example, if the input is an integer, the task sets the input value to 0 (zero). Similarly, if the input is a datetime data type, the task sets the input value to the earliest date that the datetime data type supports.
