Number, Generate Random

Generates a random number. When a token reaches this automated step, a numerical value within the specified range is generated each time. The decimal part is rounded down toward 0 according to the workflow data definition.

Configs

A: Set Lower Limit (e.g. “0”, “-0.5”) * ^#{EL}
B: Set Upper Limit (e.g. “10”, “0.5”) * ^#{EL}
C: Select NUMERIC DATA for Generated Number (update) *

Capture

Generates a random number. When a token reaches this automated step, a numerical value within the specified range is generated each time. The decimal part is rounded down toward 0 according to the workflow data definition.

Notes

Setting the range specification from 0 to 10 generates a number from 0.00 to 9.99.
If a random number is required as a character string, consider using “String, Generate Password“. (0 starts, etc.)
The format of the lower limit and upper limit depends on the JavaScript “parseFloat()” function.
