WiscIT - Update a Variable or Stored Value (One-Step Configuration)

This document explains how to configure the "Update a Variable or Stored Value" step in the WiscIT One-Step Editor.

Example of the Step in the Cherwell Editor

The "Update a Variable or Stored Value" step will modify the value or an existing variable or stored value, or allow the user to create a new variable. These values can then be used across the one-step in order to perform other logical tasks or display information.

Configuring the Step

  1. Add the step by dragging it into the One-Step Editor
  2. Select the "General" Tab
  3. Give the step a name
  4. Decide whether this step should be for a Stored Value or a Variable, and select the radio button that corresponds with this. See WiscIT - Variables and Stored Values for help deciding which option to use.
    • There is a third option, called "Based on scope and value:", which is unused in the WiscIT application
    Example of only using the Variable or Stored Value options in the Cherwell Editor
  5. Enter the new value into the "New Value:" box at the bottom. Note that you can right click this field to insert a field value, expression, or anything else listed.

    For Stored Values, note that you also have the option of clicking the checkbox for "Clear user-specific values are restore the Stored Value to its default value", which will clear the Stored Value instead.
