question on VARIANTS

[Jkeri]

I created my report code and have been testign it without variants. I now want to add variants that the user will need. So far i managed to create the variants but cant figure out how to make the connection of the variant to the report. Where do i have to say 'for this report, use this variant'?

Not sure I understand your question. You can create a transaction in SE93 and assign a variant to your report for that transaction.

maybe i didnt explain it properly.

I have two screens and on each screen i have multiple parameter feilds that the user can enter values into. I want to create variants for each of those parents, which i di. I created a variant unit that had all the parameters defined in it along with the default values. I just do not know how to tell the code to accociate those variants with that report.

A variant ALWAYS belongs to a report - have a look at table VARID. The association you're looking for is already done.
How did you create them? By clicking on the 'Save' icon when on the selection screen?

Two Screens ? Is this a report or a dialog transaction?

Variants generally only apply to the Parameter screen of a report.
