 !!! tip "Use the Source, Luke"
     To see the full range of available helper functions, refer to the source file [report.py](https://github.com/inventree/InvenTree/blob/master/InvenTree/report/templatetags/report.py) where these functions are defined!
 
+## Assigning Variables
+
+When making use of helper functions within a template, it can be useful to store the result of the function to a variable, rather than immediately rendering the output.
+
+For example, using the [render_currency](#rendering-currency) helper function, we can store the output to a variable which can be used at a later point in the template:
+
+```html
+{% raw %}
+
+{% load report %}
+
+{% render_currency 12.3 currency='USD' as myvar %}
+...
+...
+Result: {{ myvar }}
