el paso de parámetros
Spanish to English
Tech/Engineering
IT (Information Technology)
Occurs within a contract for software provision. The full phrase is "La solución debe ser capaz de gestionar el paso de parámetros - cliente, cuente etc."
The most likely seems to be transfer or copying (of parameters), as I have found this phrase in references to copying content to sub-routines. But does anyone know for definite? All assistence welcome.....best wishes Sian.

parameter-passing / the passing of parameters
That's certainly what's used if they are being sent to a program or sub-routine. If they are being sent to a whole system something like "passing across parameters" is more usueal.

Comment: "Hola and many thanks: parameter passing seems to be the closest valid answer, so that´s what I´ve used in the end. Best wishes. Sian. "

capable of passing parameters
Lo de gestionar creo que no es necesario.
Al igual que en español, se habla de "passing parameters" al llamar a una subrutina.

I tend to use "data" or details" rather than "parameters" for data items such as customer names, codes, addresses... etc. Otherwise I think the text can end up being rather impenetrable to less expert or techno-savvy readers.

Moreover, if I see "solution" more than 3 times in a text my eyes and brain start to glaze over...

: Neil, this is a very IT specific term and passing parameters is the standard expression.
