It's a best practice not to hardcode values in code until
or unless it's not very necessary. Always try to use
dynamic variables in your code it will increase the
felxibility of the code.
Ex let say you have to run one of your code every year and
one of your condition needs a date which is begning of the
year and you hardcoded your value like this
%Let YBEG = '2007-01-01'
Then every year when you have to run this code you have to
change the date but if you use daynamic variable it will
resolve automatically.
ex YBEG = Y_BEG_0.
