Summary :
Starting from version 3.0D, SAP allows the creation of system variants for reports with specific attributes. System variants, prefixed by 'SAP&' for SAP-delivered and 'CUS&' for customer-created, are protected against overwriting and only editable by their creators or the last modifier. These variants cannot be created for private/local programs and are included in transports automatically if tied to the full program (R3TR PROG) or managed through Workbench Organizer (LIMU VARI). From SAP Release 4.0, system variants are stored exclusively in client 000, although accessible from all clients. Application variants, identified by other prefixes, are transported manually or via transport request from variant maintenance. Pre-4.0C variants are treated as system variants for transport compatibility and are also propagated across all clients unless marked as 'application variants' using RSSYSENT.
