Identify the Parameter variable file

Hi

I am trying to understand a shell scipt file ( .ksh file ) . In the shell script we are referring a variable .

Code:
Example : SessLogs=$STAFF_MSTR_DIR/staff_dtls

There are no references in the shell script from where the variable "$STAFF_MSTR_DIR" is being read from .

Could anyone please help me understand from where the Variable :"$STAFF_MSTR_DIR" is being referred.

Thanks
