Viewing the populated variable on the GUI

We currently use AutoEdit Variables in our MVS environment (6.2.20). We also have the EM (6.3.01.300). When working from the mainframe, you can use % in front of the job to see what the populated autoedit variable is for that day. Is there any way to accomplish this thru the EM GUI ? When you right click and select view jcl, it only shows the unpopulated variable.

If you intend to see shell or jcl variables (edit JCL) you havent the command like you have say, the open systems are different ...
