Use
SAP delivers a number of variables. There are variables that are processed via automatic replacement using a predefined replacement path (processing type SAP Exit).

If you want to define a query that only ever displays the data from the current month, you drag the delivered variable for the characteristic value "current month" (tech. name 0CMONTH) into the query filter.
Before you can use delivered variables you must first activate them. You can get further information on activating the query objects under
Installing Business Content.
Integration
You can find information on how you use the delivered variables in the query definition in the section
Creating Queries with VariablesYou can find the delivered variables in the
Metadata Repository if you search for variables using the search function (see
Searching for Metadata).
The technical name of a delivered SAP object always begins with a number.
