Create a recipient using several key field values for recipient determination

AIF is using recipients to determine the users who are responsible for a message. Users will only see AIF interfaces in the interface monitor or message dashboard if they are assigned to one or more recipients. With the usage of key fields it is possible to determine recipients depending on the value of one or more specific fields in the message. This allows more specific recipients for example there could be one recipient used for messages for VKORG 1000 and another one for VKORG 2000
