Runtime substitution variables are specified as key/value pairs. The string must be enclosed with single quotation marks, and key/value pairs must be separated by a semicolon, including a semicolon after the last runtime substitution variable in the string and before the terminal single quotation mark.

Runtime substitution variables' name and default value must be declared in the SET RUNTIMESUBVARS calculation command. If you include a runtime substitution variable in RTSV-LIST that has not been declared, Essbase ignores the undeclared runtime substitution variable (no warnings or exceptions are generated).

Type

string (see MaxL Syntax Notes)

Example

In this example of a runtime substitution variable string, the name and value of four runtime substitution variables are specified (for example, the value of the runtime substitution variable named "a" is 100):

'a=100;b=@CHILDREN("100");c="Actual"->"Final";d="New York";'
