Field codes

A field code is a variable that is replaced with a specific field value.

You can use field codes in matrix reports. When you run a report, field codes are replaced with values from an item included in the report. For example, %SUMM% is replaced with the value from the item's Summary field.

In the desktop client, you can use field codes in email templates.
