Id number of work item.

Example
To access a work item later on the workflow, Id number of it is stored on the form XML while that work item was active.
var identifier = $Xml.Evaluate('Specific_Xpath_for_a_WorkItemId'),
referred_item = $WorkItem.Get(identifier);
// Now referred_item can be used as a work item object:
var date = referred_item.DeadlineDate;
