When you customize workflow activities with conditional elements, you can choose from several Variable Types. The properties of each Variable Type are described in this topic.
See "Set Up Workflow Conditional Elements" for details about customizing your workflows.
@Variables - Use these variables to evaluate a specific type of static data. For example, variables that you create with the Assign conditional element contain data that is available only for the workflow activity in which they were created.
Bool - Use this variable type to evaluate whether data is "true" (checked), or "false" (unchecked). Enable the Value option if you want the tested data to be "true"; disable the option if you want the tested data to be "false".
Currency - Use this variable type to evaluate a specific dollar amount.
Date - Use this variable type to evaluate a specific date.
DateTime - Use this variable type to evaluate a specific date and time,
Double - Use this variable type to evaluate a number up to two digits past the decimal point (i.e. 18.75 or .99)
Field - Use this variable type to evaluate a specific field in your Edge database. After selecting this variable type, choose the Field to work with (such as Patient Age Years or Office Abbreviation). Most often, the Selected Table property is updated automatically to reflect the type of field you have chosen. On occasion, you may wish to choose a Selected Variable that will contain this field data for the duration of the workflow activity.
Int - Use this variable type to evaluate an integer, or whole number, such as 18.
Listkey - Use this variable type to evaluate a list response from your Edge database. After selecting this variable type, you choose the Field to work with, such as Office Abbreviation or Patient Status. The available responses then appear in the Value box, where you can select one or more response to work with.
String - Use this variable to evaluate specific text. After selecting this variable type, enter the exact text you want to evaluate.
