Entering Values for Integer Variables
The Integer variable is a Planning replacement variable.
To enter values for an integer variable:
From Type, select Integer.
To use a Smart List, create the variable at the application, plan type, or rule
level. (You cannot use the Smart List at the global level.) Then click in the
Smart List box, click on the dropdown list, and select a Smart List.
For example, you can set up an integer Smart List for a reporting cycle that
has values 1-5, for Yearly (1), Quarterly (2), Monthly (3), Daily (4), and
Hourly (5). A user can select "Monthly" and the number three is stored in
the database. This prevents users from having to remember the numbers.
You can also set up a string of text or a date as the value for the Smart
List.
Note:
You must select a Planning application that supports the use of Smart Lists.
To use an integer runtime prompt, leave the Smart List box empty, then go to
the next step.
Optional: In the Value table, click in Limits to define minimum and maximum integers values for the variable.
Optional: Click in the default value and enter an integer for the variable.
By default, RTP is selected. If you do not want to create a runtime prompt for this variable, clear RTP.
If you do not select RTP, you must enter a default value for the variable.
If you selected RTP, enter the runtime prompt text you want to display for users.
