In additon to the Abhinav answer, Once value assigned to
mapping parameter, it can not be change as per login in
mapping.
Where as if you define as mapping variable, it can be
initialized, can be changed the value as per logic in
mapping and even it can be held as persistent to use the
same value in running session next time.
I think you understand this..

Answer / abhinav
Mapping parameter is an option in Informatica where, at the
mapping level, you can specify the value to be used.
For example, if there is a field called START_DATE, the
value for this date can be specified by either passing it
as a variable at the mapping level or storing the value in
a parameter file, which will be read during the session is
run.
