Workflow Set Values from scratchpad

This is probably a simple syntax problem but I can't seem to find an answer anywhere. If I am using the Set Values activity to change some fields on the current record is there a way to use scratchpad values? I've tried using just workflow.scratchpad.variable as well as javascript: workflow.scratchpad.variable and javascript:new workflow.scratchpad.variable. The only thing that does anything is workflow.scratchpad.variable which just puts that text in the field. I can probably just use the run script activity but that seems not to be best practice for this. In case my description isn't clear I attached a picture that depicts the three ways I've tried this. Any help would be appreciated.

James,



You need to use ${workflow.scratchpad.<whatever you name>}
