A 'Standalone' situation is one that has no context, e.g. If this Parameter is to be used when running a Client Advice document then in certain situations (E.g. if it is being run from a form displaying Client information), the Client would be known. The same document may however be run from a menu option which has no concept of which Client the document is to be run for therefore, the User must select (via a Parameter) a Client or range of Clients to use. This second example is considered a 'Standalone' situation.
