Multi-line variable set and order guides

[stevenm]

I am trying to copy/pass/whatever the values in a multi-line variable set from the main order guide page to the successive catalog items.  The situation is that a manager is going to enter one or more new employees who all will have access to one more more applications.  The applications (see screen shot) will represent catalog items.  Each of those catalog items will have to know who the new list of employees is.  So how do I get that information into each catalog item.

It seems you can't copy multi-line variable sets from the guide to each catalog item using the method in the rules.  I forget the name right now.  Thoughts?  I have googled quite a bit and can't find my exact issue.

This should work.  I just tested it.

1) Create a multi row variable set (you've done this already I see)

2) Add that variable set to each of your catalog items that you want to pass the data to

3) Add the variable set to your order guide

4) Set the Cascade Variables property on your order guide to True

That did it.  I was making it more complicated than I had to.
