Variables are used throughout the ProWorkflow application, they provide the ability to let ProWorkflow insert details automatically. This can save a lot of time when adding/editing projects and tasks.
e.g. When adding a new Project a user can use {autonumber} in the title field of the Project and ProWorkflow will automatically add the appropriate number to the title of the project.
A list of available variables is always diplayed below the related field so a user knows which ones they can use. The list below explains what each variable represents.
