About Temporary Variables

You can create temporary variables simply by using a name that is not defined in the Variable Maps.

A temporary variable persists for the life of the property set unless you explicitly delete it using a {Row} -= {Row.Temp Variable} action. In general, there is no need to delete temporary variables, because they create little overhead in having a few temp variables.

It is recommended that you use a naming convention for temporary variables, such as beginning each one with Temp (for example, Temp Roll Up Price), to make sure that they do not conflict with the names of other variables.

NOTE:  Variable names are case sensitive. For example, if you try to refer to the {Row.Net Price} variable and you mistakenly use {Row.NEt Price}, the application will not recognize the variable.
