XPATH

Description

Use the XPATH type to allow a math variable to be set up that will parse through the stored XML as a source object for the data element name and return the value from the XML.

This math variable is most effectively used in situations where an external call is received by OIPA and provides information that needs to be parsed. It is not recommended for general configuration.
