### Value() {#Value--}
```
public Value()
```


Initializes a new instance of the [Value](../../com.aspose.tasks/value) class.

### getDateValue() {#getDateValue--}
```
public final Date getDateValue()
```


Gets the actual value if it can be represented as DateTime. Default value is DateTime\#MinValue.MinValue.

--------------------

Prefer this property over the `Val`([getVal()](../../com.aspose.tasks/value\#getVal--)/[setVal(String)](../../com.aspose.tasks/value\#setVal-String-)), when you need to set the DateTime value.

**Returns:**
java.util.Date - the actual value if it can be represented as DateTime.
### getDescription() {#getDescription--}
```
public final String getDescription()
```


Gets the description of a value.

**Returns:**
java.lang.String - the description of a value.
### getDuration() {#getDuration--}
```
public final Duration getDuration()
```


Gets the actual value which is used to represent Duration.

--------------------

Prefer this property over the `Val`([getVal()](../../com.aspose.tasks/value\#getVal--)/[setVal(String)](../../com.aspose.tasks/value\#setVal-String-)), when you need to set the Duration value.

**Returns:**
[Duration](../../com.aspose.tasks/duration) - the actual value which is used to represent Duration.
### getId() {#getId--}
```
public final int getId()
```


Gets the unique identifier of a value across a project.

It's important to not have same identifiers for different [Value](../../com.aspose.tasks/value) instances.

Minimal `Id`([getId()](../../com.aspose.tasks/value\#getId--)/[setId(int)](../../com.aspose.tasks/value\#setId-int-)) value is `1`.

**Returns:**
int - the unique identifier of a value across a project.
### getNumericValue() {#getNumericValue--}
```
public final BigDecimal getNumericValue()
```


Gets the actual value which is used to represent number or cost value.

--------------------

Prefer this property over the `Val`([getVal()](../../com.aspose.tasks/value\#getVal--)/[setVal(String)](../../com.aspose.tasks/value\#setVal-String-)), when you need to set the Number or Cost value.

**Returns:**
java.math.BigDecimal - the actual value which is used to represent number or cost value.
### getPhonetic() {#getPhonetic--}
```
public final String getPhonetic()
```
