activities in one area
generate activities in
another area

 The system provides online,


real-time information and
one place for input of data

modules
 Each module covers a different business
function

SAP system.

entry field
 This data does not normally change
 Examples are address and payment information for a supplier or
customer

the SAP system

The same process is used to set up a variant for each transaction code. Based on
the transaction code, the field options or selection indicators may change slightly

For certain reports or transactions, pre-defined variants may have been set up
for use at Tarrant County. See the Quick Reference Card for that report or
transaction to get the name of those ‘Master’ variants

A master variant can be used as is or as a template to create your own personal


variant. You should first check to see if a master variant can be used before you
create a personal variant from scratch

for your role and containing only those transactions to which you
have access.
