SetJobVariable

The SetJobVariable() function saves a value or an object at the job (workflow). This can then be used in a mapping and EntityIfCase executed later via GetJobVariable or used in the BackendObject.

The X-Path value is saved, which can be used to store entire structures. Which is why a Trim() is also necessary if you only want to save the content, in the following case the value of @Name.

Variables for the DB adapter must start with eBiss.DBadapter.¹⁾. With e.g.:

SetJobVariable('ebiss.dbadapter.ComanyName', Trim(@Name))

you can define the variable value of the following WHERE condition:

    [Where(" = $CompanyName ")]
    public string Name;

If you need a numerical value, e.g. if the document number in the DB is numerical, you can achieve this with :

SetJobVariable('ebiss.dbadapter.DocNumber', MakeNumeric(@DocNumber))

When used in the Where condition, the numerical value is thus obtained without quotation marks.

    [Where(" = $DocNumber")]
    public string Name;

SetJobVariable('Name of variable', 'value')

SetJobVariable('LastFilename', 'MyFile_1.dat')
