I got this it to work thru paying for custom programming for it AND then fixed it myself to have it work correctly.

Use following code inside of Yoast Meta Title and meta Description fields inside of pages/posts:

%%VariableName%%

I have only tested this with TEXT field in ACF PRO.

Below is what goes into Functions.php

if( function_exists('acf_add_options_page') ) {
	
	acf_add_options_page();
	
}

$seo_variables = get_fields('options'); 
if ( function_exists('get_fields') ){		
	if( $seo_variables ) {
		$seo_variables_array = array();
		foreach( $seo_variables as $name => $value ):
			$seo_variables_array[$name] = $value;		   
        endforeach;
	}
}

function ss_get_all_values($var1){
	global $seo_variables_array;
//	echo($seo_variables_array[$var1]);
	return $seo_variables_array[$var1];
}

function ss_register_custom_yoast_variables() {
$seo_variables = get_fields('options');
if ( function_exists('get_fields') ) {
	if( $seo_variables ) {
		$seo_variables_array = array();
		foreach( $seo_variables as $name => $value ):		
		    wpseo_register_var_replacement( $name, 'ss_get_all_values', 'advanced');
        endforeach;
		}
	}
}

// Add action
add_action('wpseo_register_extra_replacements', 'ss_register_custom_yoast_variables');
