# Preprocessor details

The information related to the preprocessor can be seen in the various sections of a preprocessor detail.

The _General Information_ section shows name, description, date of creation, path to the executable, status (active / inactive) and the maximum number of instances permitted for a single preservation plan.

The section Preprocessor parameters shows the parameters configured for the preprocessor, its description, its default value (if any), a recommended value, the type of parameter (on configuring the parameter of the preprocessor, when we create a preservation plan the type of data configured here will validate that the information entered is correct), its range (if the type of data selected was numeric), and whether it is mandatory for the parameter to be configured or not.

&#x20;Last, a list with all the preservation plans with the associated preprocessor is shown.
