Variants facilitate processing in SAP as jobs can be processed with ready-set input values. Automic supports the use of variants by offering various functions for reading, copying or modifying variants. Deleting and listing them are also possible.
It is important that variants are checked and set just before an ABAP program is processed in order to exclude error sources.
