  • Key Concepts: 
    A task list variant is a feature of the SAP installation tools component (BC-INS) that allows users to create a list of tasks that can be used to install or upgrade SAP systems. The task list variant contains a set of predefined tasks that are used to install or upgrade the system. The task list variant can be customized to meet the specific needs of the user. 
    
    How to use it: 
    To use a task list variant, the user must first create a task list. This can be done by selecting the “Create Task List” option from the SAP installation tools menu. Once the task list is created, the user can then select the “Create Task List Variant” option from the same menu. This will open a window where the user can select which tasks they want to include in their task list variant. Once the tasks have been selected, the user can save their task list variant and use it for future installations or upgrades. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When creating a task list variant, it is important to make sure that all of the tasks included in the variant are necessary for the installation or upgrade process. This will help ensure that all of the necessary steps are taken during the installation or upgrade process and will help reduce any potential errors or problems. Additionally, it is important to make sure that all of the tasks included in the variant are compatible with each other. This will help ensure that all of the tasks run smoothly and without any issues.
