Feature Requests for Variables

1. I'd like to share variables between PDQ Inventory and PDQ Deploy; I get why they're separate products, but at least let me do a one-way destructive sync or something so I don't have to maintain two sets of variables.

2. I'd like to use variables in the Conditions tab in PDQ Deploy

Thank you for your suggestions. We have existing internal feature request tickets for both of these. I have no ETA on when they could be implemented.

I would have much use of variables in the Conditions tab in PDQ Deploy.

Most immediate would be checking an application version compared to the one stored in my custom variable to determine wether the install is required.

It could also be used to check after an install process thaht the new version is up to date (in case the install would go wrong without error return code)

I just added Sync-PdqVariable to my PowerShell module, PdqStuff. It synchronizes all variables between Deploy and Inventory. Open a PowerShell window as admin, then run the following. You will most likely have to accept a few prompts.
```
Set-ExecutionPolicy 'RemoteSigned'
Install-Module -Name 'PdqStuff'
Import-Module -Name 'PdqStuff'
Get-Help Sync-PdqVariable -Full
```
