		+
		+	Once a System Definition is created, it can be used in any EMarket field defining a Resource Instance.
		+
		+	For example, if the System Definition named ''$StartDate'' has the value ''1 July 2005'' and a Run Definition has '$StartDate' entered in to the ''Start Date field'', the Run will be executed with a start date of '1 July 2005'.
		+
		+	System Definitions can also be used to replace starting storage values or parts of formulae. For example an Offer Price might be defined as '$DieselCost / 0.4' where the name '$DieselCost' has been given a System Definition. Some numeric fields may not allow System Definition names to be entered.
