Overview documentation Variable Values in Variants Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

To avoid having to create a new variant each time you use different values, you can use variable values in variants.

Using variables with variants includes three different options:

·        Variable date calculations (see also, Creating Variables for Date Calculations)

You can use variable date calculation when you need to use a date in a variant, for example, today's date or the last day of the month.

·        User-specific fixed values (see also User-Specific Selection Variables)

To fill certain selections with values that differ from user to user, you use a variant with user-specific values.

·        Fixed values defined in table TVARVC (see also Fixed Values in Table TVARVC)

To fill certain selections with values that change according to the application, you use a variant which takes the variable values from table TVARVC. To avoid having to create a new variant and specify it in every background processing run following each minimal change in the selection data, you can simply assign a variable in table TVARVC to it and then change the values concerned in the table. This is particularly important for the values on the selection screen that are input-protected.
