DyA Variables

A variable is a character, or group of characters, that symbolizes an amount that can never be considered constant.

The term TODAY is a variable since it means a different calendar date depending on which day it is used.

The term SUNDAY is also a variable since it could accurately be used to define any Sunday, past, present, or future; simply put, the word SUNDAY, can not be interpreted into a specific date.

The resulting value of a Dynamic Variable evaluation can be altered via the use of a Target Component Identifier or a Dynamic Function.

Refer to DyA Variable List for a complete listing.

All Dynamic Arguments that can take a gray number as a parameter can also accept a comma delimited list of gray numbers. The DyA tests TRUE if any one of the gray numbers is a match (e.g., ROSTERCOUNTALARM(4,8,15)). The following DyArguments have this capability:
