System variables: System variables are session variables that the Siebel Analytics Server and Siebel Analytics Web USE for specific purposes. System variables have reserved NAMES, which cannot be used for other kinds of variables (such as static or dynamic repository variables, or for non-system session variables). When using these variables in the Web, preface their names with NQ_SESSION. For example, to FILTER a column on the value of the variable LOGLEVEL set the filter to the Variable NQ_SESSION.LOGLEVEL.

Non-system variables: A common use for non-system session variables is setting user filters. For example, you COULD define a non-system variable called SalesRegion that would be initialized to the name of the user’s sales region. You could then set a security filter for all MEMBERS of a group that would allow them to see only data pertinent to their region.

When using these variables in the Web, preface their names with NQ_SESSION. For example, to filter a column on the value of the variable SalesRegion set the filter to the Variable NQ_SESSION.SalesRegion.
