V - Local Variable#

Local Variables are defined within UserCalcs and hold their value only for the life of the current UserCalc. They are used to hold temporary or working values that are necessary during a Calculation, Function or Qualifier. Local variables Do NOT hold their value beyond the life of the current UserCalc and therefore, cannot be used to pass values to Functions or Qualifiers.

Local Variables must exist prior to creating a line within a UserCalc that refers to it.

Statement

Let the date variable ‘Probation Date’ be the employee’s hire date plus 3 months. Once the calculation is preformed, the UserCalc then goes to Line 00200.

Line	CMD	OT	Operand 1	OPER	OT	Operand2	OT	Operand3	If Goto	Else GoTo
00010	LET	V	PROBATION DATE	BD	DB	EEM.HIRE_DATE	A	+3M	00200

Statement

Issue a message if the garnishment is less than original deduction.

Line	CMD	OT	Operand 1	OPER	OT	Operand2	OT	Operand3	If Goto	Else GoTo
00100	IF	V	GARNISHMENT AMT	LT	PC	256			01000	99999
01000	MSG	A	GARNISH. DEDN HAS BEEN REDUCED						99999
99999	EXIT								99999

Local Variables may be created, viewed, modified or deleted in the Variables tab of the Define UserCalcs (IMUC) form.

UserCalc Local Variables data is stored in the P2K_AM_USER_CALC_VARIABLES table.
