{myLocalVariable}.
When the process ends, the local variable forgets whatever value was given to it by the process
and goes back to its default value. Local variables are generally used to keep information that
is useful for the process itself but not to any other process or instance of the process. For
example, you could store the current order ID for the process, a name, or an email. You can
have as many local variables as you want in any given process.
Adding a local variable
To add a local variable:
1. Select the process where you want to add the variable.
2. Now you can use one of two methods:
l
Click on the Home tab of the PReS Workflow Ribbon, then click Local Variable in
the Variables group.
l
Right-click on the process in the Configuration Components area, then click on
Insert Local Variable.
Deleting a variable
l
Right-click on the variable name in the Configuration Components pane and click Delete.
Note
Deleting a variable does not delete any reference to it. In both the case where a script refers to a
variable and it is renamed, and the case of deleting a variable, any task or script that refers to it will
cease to function and will generate an error.
Renaming a variable
l Right-click on the variable name in the Configuration Components pane.
l
Click Rename.
l
Type in the new name of the variable, then press Enter on your keyboard.
