Variables
The Starter Kit heavily utilizes package runtime variables and Knowledge Model variables. Most of the runtime variable configuration is part of the front-facing UI and the user can set different values for variables representing KPI targets and thresholds. KM variables are mostly used to simplify PQL Statements and make mass changes to Table/Activity names.
Runtime variables
To edit runtime variables go to the “Accounts Receivable Starter Kit” package and click the 
-button. Go to “Settings”, select the “Variables” tab and go to the “Variable Type: Plain Text” section. For each variable you can use the -button to go into an “Edit” window where you can update the Plain Text Value (Optional) of the variable to change its content.

Consider updating the following run-time variables:
Variable Key | Description | Notes |
|---|---|---|
currency | Currency key - used to select the reporting currency for all formulas in the Starter Kit. | This variable is relevant if you’re using PQL currency conversion. Refer to the Currency Conversion section below for more details. |
KM variables
To edit KM Variables go to the Accounts Receivable Starter Kit package and select the Knowledge Model asset. In the visual editor, go to the Variable section and make the necessary adjustments for your environment. Be sure to align Table Names and Activity Names to the current DM.
