Variable table

Using variable tables you assign different values to the same variable and therefore reuse the same variable in job definitions and when defining prompts and file dependencies.

When creating a scheduling object, you can define it in a folder. If no folder path is specified, then the object definition is created in the current folder. By default, the current folder is the root (\) folder, but you can customize it to a different folder path. You can also use the composer rename command to move and rename objects in batch mode that use a naming convention to a different folder using part of the object name to assign a name to the object.

Syntax

vartable [folder/]table_name

Arguments

vartable[folder/]table_name

The name of the variable table. The name can contain up to 80 alphanumeric characters including dashes (-) and underscores (_), and must start with a letter.
