Accessing Variables

Variables can be created by any report package owner or doclet author.

After the variable has been created, the variable is managed as follows:

  • The report package owner can delete and edit all variables in the Report Package.
  • A doclet author can only delete and edit variables that they created.
  • For Reference variables, any user with Write access to the variable Value source location can update that variable value.
  • Author users have Read access to variables that they did not create, so they can see a list of all variables and insert them into doclets to which they have Author access.
