Adding to Vikas Sachdeva's answer:

It's not worked for me in that way on my subproject. The Gradle throws an error 'Could not find org.springframework:spring-context:$springVersion'. Finally, I solved my problem by adding the plus sign.

for example:

root gradle.properties:

springVersion = '5.0.3.RELEASE'

root build.gradle

dependencies {
    compile  "org.springframework:spring-context:${springVersion}"
}

subproject build.gradle

dependencies {
    compile  "org.springframework:spring-context:" + springVersion
}

Note: my gradle version is 5.4.1

or you can using the plugin manage your dependency version.

io.spring.dependency-management
