Global Variables
Job and order parameters can be set using global variables. A simple example would be:
...
where the global variable $ODAT
represents a date and has been set as described in the Substituting the How to create global variables page. Substituting a job parameter or order parameter in this way would allow, for example, a booking date to be set for a financial transaction although the transaction is actually processed at a later time.

function substituteParams( paramName ) {
var paramValue = spooler_task.params().value( paramName );
if(paramValue.search(/\$/) > -1) {
var schedulerParamNames = spooler.variables().names().split( ";" );
for( var i in schedulerParamNames ) {
if(paramValue.search(/\$/) == -1) {
break;
}
var schedulerParamValue = spooler.variables().value( schedulerParamNames[i] );
spooler_log.info( "Substitute: " + paramName + "=" + paramValue + " with " + schedulerParamNames[i] + "=" + schedulerParamValue );
var pattern = new RegExp( "\\$\\{?SCHEDULER_PARAM_" + schedulerParamNames[i] + "\\}?", "ig" );
paramValue = paramValue.replace( pattern, schedulerParamValue );
spooler_log.info( "new value of " + paramName + "=" + paramValue );
}
spooler_task.params().value( paramName ) = paramValue;
}

Substitution of global variables in an order can be carried out in a similar manner.
