What type of variables can be utilized in DTS packages?

In DTS packages, the most relevant classification of variables is between global and local variables. Global variables can be accessed throughout the entire DTS package, making them useful for storing values or configurations that need to be referenced from multiple connections or tasks within the DTS environment. Local variables, on the other hand, are confined to specific tasks and cannot be accessed outside of their defined scope.

This distinction is essential, as using global variables allows for better management of shared data across the entire package, while local variables enable task-specific customizations, enhancing the modularity and organization of the DTS package.

Other categories like temporary and permanent variables, static and dynamic variables, or single-use and multi-use variables do not specifically pertain to the DTS framework and do not encapsulate the functionality and accessibility characteristics of variables within DTS packages. Therefore, focusing on the global and local designation aligns with the core design principles and functionality intended in DTS operations.
