Mathematical Operations
The Mathematical Operations action task resolves a mathematical expression and stores the
result in an existing Job Information or other type of variable (see "About variables" on
page556).
Note
When adding this task to your process, you will be asked if you want to add the task as an
Action or a Condition. This task should only be used as an Action. If used as a condition,
it will always return False.
The task does not modify the job file in any way, its only output is the change in the specified
variable where the result is stored.
Input
Any active data file, in any format. This data file is ignored by the task and is not modified in any
way.
Processing
The task executes the mathematical operation and stores the result in the selected job info or
variable.
Output
The input data file is returned with no modifications. Metadata is not modified. A single job info
or variable is modified by this task.
