• Key Concepts: 
  A variant program is a type of program in SAP IS-U-BI Contract Billing that allows users to create and store multiple versions of a program. This allows users to quickly switch between different versions of the same program, making it easier to test and debug. The variant program also allows users to store different versions of the same program for different customers or scenarios. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use a variant program, users must first create a version of the program they want to use. This can be done by selecting the “Create Variant” option from the menu. Once the variant is created, users can then select it from the list of available variants and make any necessary changes. Once the changes are made, users can save the variant and switch back to the original version if needed. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a variant program, it is important to give it a descriptive name so that it is easy to identify later on. Additionally, it is important to save the original version of the program before creating any variants so that it can be reverted back to if needed.
