Sample Job Definition File with Temporary Variants

The following figure illustrates a sample job definition file that uses inline variant statements to define temporary variants.

This file will define a two-step job. Each job step runs ABAP report RSUSR002. The inline variant content statement is used to set the USER parameter of a temporary variant that will be created for RSUSR002. The inline content statement for the first job step specifies a value of STONE*. The inline content statement for the second job step specifies a value of OPS*.

Additional inline variant content statements can be added as needed.
