How to acquire parameter values from other process elements
To pass a parameter value from one element to another, you need to “map“ one parameter to another. This is especially efficient if the same record must be referenced by a number of process elements, for example, if tasks must be created for an account that was referenced earlier in a process.
To acquire a parameter value from another process element:
1.Double-click the required process element in the working area of the designer, for example, the [Perform task].
2.Click the 
button in the needed field of the element setup page to change its value. For example, click this button in the [Account] field of the [Perform task] element setup page to connect a task to an account.
3.On the [Process elements] tab, select the element whose parameter has the required value, for example, the “Conduct presentation“ element.
4.Select the parameter that contains the required value, and double-click it (Fig. 86).

5.Save the changes.
As a result, the parameter value will be passed to the process element.
Attention
The type of data in the source parameter must correspond to the type of data in the target parameter. For example, the source of the [Account] parameter can only be a parameter that contains an account.
