Create Generated Prompt

Use the Create Generated Prompt step to create prompt phrases from intermediate variables whose values are dynamically determined based on run-time script information.

Create Generated Prompt Customizer Window

For example, you can create the prompt phrase of “account balance is one hundred and sixty-eight dollars” by querying the database of account balances at a particular point in the script and using a currency generator to generate the number.

Note	The Create Generated Prompt step accepts only the 4-digit year format only. A 3-digit date format is not accepted.

Note	If the Generate Prompt step encounters an invalid time, it outputs 4:00 P.M. Specify a valid time between 0000 and 2400.

The following table describes the properties of the Create Generated Prompt customizer window:
