Hi,

Variants are used in order to avoid the tedious work of entering the various different values in the selection screen.

In case you have some 15 different values to be entered, you it becomes tedious to do that every time you execute the report.

So, what you have to do is.

Enter the appropriate values in the selection screen, and click on the save button. It will ask for a variant name , give appropriate name and meaning, so that anybody can understand it, and save once again.

Now, you can use this variant every time by using " SHIFT + F5" key or the shorcut on the menu.

Reward if helpful.

Regards.
