Process Director provides many built-in Custom Variables that control or customize various functions on the system. Most Custom Variables should be set in the PreSetSystemVars method of the customization file, but this isn't universally true. The PreSetSystemVars method is called prior to the system accessing the Process Director database, while SetSystemVars is called after the database has been initialized. Any custom setting that relies on information contained in the Process Director database, such as the ID of a user or Process Director object, will only work properly when called from the SetSystemVars method. Please refer to the documentation's code samples for the system variables you're setting, to ensure you place each Custom Variable in the appropriate method in the customization file.
The built-in Custom Variables are arranged into general subject sections to help make them easier to find in the documentation. To see the Custom Variables for each subject, you can use the Table of Contents displayed on the upper right corner of the page, or click on one of the links below.
