Define a New Variable Field

Define a variable field.

To define a new variable field, complete the following steps:

  1. Select the Metrics tab.
  2. In the Variables group, click New Field Variable. Field Variable x is added to the Variables list.
  3. In the Name field, enter a name for the field variable.
  4. (Optional) In the Field field, select a field from the drop-down list. If no field is specified, then you are prompted for it during an analysis. Upon entering the field (at run-time), the variable will store and use this field unless you alter it at a later time.
