Variants AMS System Version 3.1H Variants are saved selection criteria for reports, which you define. You can define a variant for any report in the system using the initial report screen. You save the variant in a Variants Directory.
Variants reduce data entry, speeding up the report process.
Variants ensure accuracy of data entry. Remember, a variant does not save a report, only the criteria to run a report. Before you create a variant, you must access a report and finish defining the selection criteria in the usual way. Do not execute the report before creating your variant. After defining your report parameters, follow the instructions out-lined below.
