  How to use it: 
  To create a run variant, users must first define the selection criteria, budgeting or controlling process, and output options. Once these are set, users can save the settings as a run variant. To use the run variant, users can select it from the list of available variants and execute it. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a run variant, it is important to give it a descriptive name so that it can be easily identified later. Additionally, users should make sure to save their run variants in an easily accessible location so that they can be found quickly when needed.
