PDM - How to increment a variable on workflow transition

SOLIDWORKS API/VBA Macros
1

Hello, how is possible to change a variable (is not a revision) value, for example increment or change it by an “expression” in a workflow transition?

In the available actions, I can set a variable, but seems you cannot insert expression.

Es. Variable = Variable + 10?

I tried via a trigger in TransationHistory SQL with stored procedure SPU_UpdVar,
but it change value only on the DB, not in the datacard.

Thanks for any info. Best regards
Massimo
