APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
The properties "Record Detection" and "Delimiter" of the File Input node are linked. For example it does not make sense to set the delimiter for a flow if the record detection is "Whole File" or any other non-delimited option. When using the properties on the node the toolkit will grey out the Delimter option where appropriate, however when the properties are promoted there is no physical linkage between the message flow design document and the value of the promoted property because different instances of the flow could have different value set for the promoted properties. For this reason the Record Detection and Delimiter fields should be promoted together to ensure consistent behaviour of the toolkit and this advice should be documented in the Knowledge Center
Local fix

Problem conclusion
Knowledge Center topics https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/app-connect/12.0?topic=nodes-filerea d-node and https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/app-connect/12.0?topic=nodes-fileinp ut-node have been updated to indicate that the "Record Detection" and "Delimiter" properties must be promoted together.
