info

Properties are variables stored in the database that can be used throughout OpCon and ae defined with name and value

System Properties begin with a dollar symbol ($) and have static values
- There are over 30 System Properties
- System Properties DO NOT appear in the Global Properties section.
- Examples: $JOB NAME, $SCHEDULE NAME, or $MACHINE NAME
Managed System Properties begin with a dollar symbol ($) and the format can be modified
- There are 7 and all have to do with dates and/or times
- Managed System Properties DO appear in the Global Properties section.
- Example: $DATE, $SCHEDULE DATE, or $TIME
- $DATE is the current date of the OpCon server
- $SCHEDULE DATE is the date a Schedule was built
  - If a Schedule is built for January 1st at 23:50, but runs until January 2nd at 3:30, all $SCHEDULE DATE properties will be resolved to January 1st date

Managed System Properties can be offset to allow for the calculation of various dates.
- Example: [[$DATEmmddyy(+1d)]] or [[$DATEmmddyy(-1d)]]
Offset Day
- [[$DATEmmddyy(+1d)]] or [[$DATEmmddyy(-1d)]] for day offsets
Offset Working Day
- [[$SCHEDULE DATEmmddyy(+1wd)]] or [[$SCHEDULE DATEmmddyy(-1wd)]] for * Working Day offsets
  - $SCHEDULE DATE required for this Working Day offset
Offset Month
- [[$DATEmmddyy(+1m)]] or [[$DATEmmddyy(-1m)]] for day offsets
  - No offset specific for year – Use (+12m) or (-12m) to offset years
End of Month
- [[$DATEmmddyy(+1eom)]] Value finds the last day of current month
  - +1 is current month
  - +2 is next month
- [[$DATEmmddyy(-1eom)]] Value finds the last day of previous month
