  • Key Concepts: 
    Object variants are a feature of the SAP AcceleratedSAP (ASAP) component that allow users to create multiple versions of an object, such as a report or form, with different characteristics. This allows users to quickly and easily create multiple versions of the same object without having to manually configure each one. Object variants can be used to customize objects for different users or departments, or to create different versions of the same object for different purposes. 
    
    How to use it: 
    Object variants can be created in the SAP AcceleratedSAP (ASAP) component by selecting the “Create Variant” option from the menu. This will open a dialog box where users can enter the name and description of the variant, as well as any other settings they wish to configure. Once the variant is created, it can be used in place of the original object when running reports or forms. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When creating an object variant, it is important to give it a descriptive name that will help identify it later on. Additionally, it is helpful to include a description of the variant in order to quickly remind yourself what it is used for.
