# New Outbound Transport Action Item

Selecting **Outbound Transport Action** creates a **New Outbound Transport Action Item** under the **Action Steps Tab**.

Click on the item to access the fields.

## Fields

| Field Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Active | Tick this box to make this step “*active*”. You can skip this step by deactivating it. |
| Source Data | Select the **File Definition** which represents the file to be transported. There must be an item under the **Data** tab that this step can reference. The **File Definition** could be blank in the **Designer** as it does not need to read the structure of the file. |
