Is there a way to lock a date variable, in the parameter, for specific jobs that occasionally carryover?
The goal is to keep the date from flipping when a few specific jobs carryover.

Hi Rick!
you would need to set a variable... remember that parametes are calculated at runtime when the job goes active so you can't use
Also don't forget that file dependecies that use variables don't work the same way they calculate at insertion into the schedule (so it knows what to watch for) and that when using dates it can get tricky to make sure they match between dependecy and parameters... especially with jobs that may carry over... which is why we try to avoid wherever possinle
Good luck!
