Set Field Value to a Constant
Description
Set Field Value to a Constant overwrites existing field values with a fixed constant, with support for variable substitution within the constant string. Use this step when you need to assign a uniform value to a field — for example, setting a status field to "Processed", stamping a batch ID on every row, or resetting a counter field to zero. It also supports empty string assignment and can use Process Studio variables to make the constant dynamic at runtime.
