Use

This activity is used to define context variables to specify dates for various Duet tasks. Context variables allow the Duet user to mention dates and date ranges by selecting relative values like "today" and "tomorrow" (without having to select the exact dates from a displayed calendar).

Requirements

Standard settings

Five context variables are pre-delivered to the system administrator. These variables may be modified and new ones may be added.

Activities

To define a new context variable, click New Entries. To modify an existing context variable, select a variable and click on the Change -> Display button. Edit the following parameters:

Column    Description

Context Variable    Specify the technical name for the context variable to map them to an RFC destination.

Short Text    Specify a short text description for the context variable.

Var Type    Select whether the variable is a parameter 'P' (for specific dates) or parameter 'S' (for relative dates and date ranges).
