  Key Concepts: 
  A preference variable is a setting in SAP Engineering Control Center (SAP ECTR) that allows users to customize the system to their individual needs. It is a type of configuration parameter that can be used to control the behavior of the system, such as how it displays data or which features are enabled. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Preference variables can be set in the SAP ECTR user interface. To do this, go to the “Preferences” tab and select the “Variables” option. From there, you can add, edit, or delete preference variables. You can also set the value of each variable by entering a value in the “Value” field. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to note that preference variables are specific to each user. This means that if you change a preference variable for one user, it will not affect other users. Additionally, some preference variables may require a system restart before they take effect.
