Published variable does not work for all jobs.

[mixed_fruit_salat]

Hi, 

So my problem is a published variable. I have a workflow where the first job inside, a script is parsing an xml file and is setting up the variables for the whole workflow with PUBLISH. One of the "published" variables is a file name that needs to be transferred with an other transfer job. The problem is that the transfer cannot recognize the published variable, let's call it &attachment#. 

If you look into the report & activation, everything is visible there but in the end I get the error the file &attachment# does not exist. 

Does anyone have any idea?

Hi @mixed_fruit_salat!

Please check the settings of all involved objects. I suggest changing the setting "Generate Task at Activation time" to "Generate Task at Runtime" at the Attributes pane of each object.

see https://docs.automic.com/documentation/webhelp/english/ALL/components/DOCU/24.4.0/Automic%20Automation%20Guides/Content/AWA/Executions/Exec_GenerateAtActivationRuntime.htm
