I think you need to use the function 'RS_CHANGE_CREATED_VARIANT'

please see the below link:

Hi Santosh,

U have to create a dynamic variant and transport this to ur production system.

Follow below steps. Screen may be slightly different for version 4.6c above.

First fill in all the selection screen data and save the data as variant.

Give some variant name and description. Select the check box corresponding to the Date range as selection variable (L). Next press push button selection variables in the tool bar.

Click on the yellow light corresponds to column D(Stands for Dynamic). It will become green colour.

Then press the down arrow at the end of the date range.

It will display a popup for various calculations. Select any one based on the requirement.

When we press enter next screen will appear with low and high values. Now press

save, you will go back to the previous screen.

Now save this variant.

Thanks,

Vinod.
