Defining Process Variables
Process variables can be used as a reference value to store or pass a value between executions of a 
process or between steps within a single process. Process variables can also be used to collect input 
parameters from the user or parent process.
Use the following steps to define a process variable. The property pages displayed depend on the type 
of variable selected. 
To define a process variable:
Step 1
On the Variables tab, click New > [Variable].
Note
Each variable has an associated property page, see the appropriate sections for information on defining 
the individual properties.
The [Variable] Properties dialog box displays.
Note
The Required Value 
 icon displayed on a tab or page indicates that the field is required and is missing 
a value.
Step 2
On the General tab, enter the appropriate variable-specific information.
Step 3
Click OK to close the dialog box.
