You open the Encoder agent configuration dialog from a workflow configuration: you can right-click the agent icon and select Configuration..., or double-click the agent icon.

Encoder configuration dialog - Encoder tab

Setting	Description
Suppress Encoding	If enabled, the agent will not encode the incoming data. It expects a raw byte array as the input type and will pass it through untouched. This mode is used when only a header and/or a trailer is added to a data batch.
Encoder	List of available encoders introduced via the Ultra Format Editor, as well as the default built-in encoder for the internal format (MZ format tagged UDRs).

Note!

The Header and Trailer tabs are described in 9.22.5 Encoder Agent Services Batch. The use and setting of private threads for an agent, enabling multi-threading within a workflow, is configured in the Thread Buffertab. For further information, see Thread Buffer Tab in 3.1.6 Workflow Template.
