Hi Rahul,

In a typical configuration of check deposit in Bank Accounting, following steps are followed:

1. To create a new variant, select Variant --> New variant --> Create....

2. In the pop-up window, enter the variant ID, descripttion and the number of account assignment lines.

On the next screen, you see the possible account assignment fields in the right column. The fields for the account assignment variant you will use are to be entered in the left column. The field Amount is predefined as a required field.

3. Select the required fields from the list of possible fields.

The fields you select are transferred to the list of current fields and displayed one after the other (up to 80 characters). The offset column provides information on how many characters are needed in an account assignment field.

4. Save your account assignment variant and then activate it.

Check if you are missing any step here

Regards

Moreover, the variant SAP01 is a standard variant available in the system. You don't need to save it. You just have to activate it.

Rahul,

Every variant starting with SAP is reserved for Standard SAP naming convention of Variants. Are you making any changes to the already defined attributes in this variant? Because you need a workbench created to carry out such change.

Dear Rahul,

Whenever you create a new configuration entity in SAP, a workbench request gets created under your profile log. This request is used when you want to transport/copy the same configuration to another environment e.g. from Development to Quality. This is why Workbench Request is also called Transport Request

It does not change/trigger anything. So there is no need to be scared. The request number created will lie in your user profile log which you can later use to copy the same configuration in another client.

When the pop-up appears, just click on the "Create Request" icon and give a descripttion of your request e.g. "Check Deposit Variant XYZ" and click on save. The screen will retrurn with a request number automatically generated. Click on "OK" and hurray your variant will be created and saved.
