Variable
Variable fields are used to automatically enter values such as Time and Date. To set a Variable
field the user selects the value they would like to enter in the field from the drop down menu. The
selected setting will then appear in the “Default” field value in the Settings screen. By default,
Variable field values are populated when the record is first created. To update the variable each
time it is submitted, simply enable the Update Variables option for that field. Refer to Section
4.2.4 for more information regarding Update Variables.
