Data can be stored in the Data Repository using the Push to Repository task (see "Push to

Retrieving data from the Data Repository
In any Workflow task where variable data is allowed (recognisable by the maroon field labels),
information can be retrieved from the Data Repository using a Lookup function. Right-click a
field with a maroon label and select Get Repository Location. This will bring up the "Data
Repository Manager" on page744. Select a Group, Key and KeySet entry to determine which
value or values should be retrieved at runtime; then click OK. The Lookup Function Syntax,
displayed at the bottom left of the Data Repository Manager, will be copied into the field.
