Where to Use Workflow Variables

Use a workflow variable in an expression in a conditional sequence flow when you want the Data Integration Service to evaluate the variable value and then determine which object to run next. Use a workflow variable in a task field when you want the Data Integration Service to use the variable value for the field.

Depending on the expression or task field, you can select or type the workflow variable name.

The following table lists the objects and fields where you can use workflow variables:
