In-Memory Variable Access

[MarqueeCrew]

 I've seen the question in the community and have had the need to cascade fields in a record.  On certain conditions, field 2 moves to field 1 and field 3 moves to field 2 etcetera.  This can be a complicated process remembering if the moves were made and which field contents should be where.

One solution might be to define the cascade condition as an expression and then map the fields as FROM TO and allow for defaulting into a field (ie: Null()).

Another solution might be to reference the input data directly.  You could get field values from the input stream before enhancements to data were made.

At the end of a process, Delta Flags (fields changed during the formula) could be created if input/output of selected variables were changed.

A stream of thoughts....
