Selection
variant is a very commonly used feature in SAP to save set of input values for
a selection screen of a program. You can execute the program easily by calling
the relevant variant. Selected variant will contain all necessary values for
your selection criteria.
For
example, if you run a report in SAP, you will first get a selection screen,
where you need to maintain the selection criteria to filter data out of SAP. If
you have to fill same set of data every time you execute this report, then you
can save those values as a variant.
And
also similar setup is significantly used in large scale SAP customer to execute
AFS allocation run, delivery note creation, etc in the background mode.
These
variants can be used both dialog mode (Online) and background execution.
