The "Recalculate Folder-Related Variables" option allows you to update one or more variables associated with the parent folder.


This tool requires a connection to the SQL database.


 


It is possible to recalculate all variable values.


  


Or just the variables defined in a list; in that case, you simply open the drop-down menu to add a variable.


  


You can filter by multiple variables; the separator is a semicolon (;), which is automatically entered when you add a variable.


 


For example, you can then edit a project's comment.


 


And use TaskActions to update this comment in all the files in the project.
