Probably the easiest approach for you is to construct your logic in a regular job, test it, then select the pertinent stages and use the Edit menu to create your shared container.

If/when it subsequently needs parameters or documentation you can then open the shared container to create these.

The Modify stage has a string_trim() function. It may not be documented in the Parallel Job Developer's Guide, but it is documented in the Orchestrate Operators manual.

Why particularly do you want to use shared containers?

In a version 7 system the requirements are far less than those for version 8, but you should be planning ahead for the day when support for version 7 is no longer available. The number of clients is not, of itself, an issue (unless you are licensed for fewer). It's what they are doing that's the iss...
