About Variables

Variables are pre-defined values used in templates that are part of the AccuRoute server installation. There are many types of variables that can be used in different ways. Some variables are set up in templates during the server installation. In addition, variables can be customized to meet your workflow requirements. The variables are enclosed using the percent (%) symbols and no spaces. They identify what data is needed during the processing of a template by the server.
