Definition

Assignment of line layout variant to one of the following types:

  • Line item variants
  • Totals variants

Use

Items are listed individually for line item variants.

For totals variants, a summarization (cumulation) takes place for each field in the variant; that is, a number of items may be contained in the totals that are displayed.

Example

The following was posted:

Document    Business partner    Contract    Amount

4701    G1            V1        100

4702    G1            V2        200

4703    G1            V2        220

4704    G2            V1        300

4705    G2            V1        170

Variant VE1 (line item variant) contains the business partner, contract, and amount fields. Variant VS1 (totals variant) contains the same fields.

Display with VE1 looks like this:
Business partner Contract Amount
G1 V1 100
G1 V2 200
G1 V2 220
G2 V1 300
G2 V1 170

Display with VS1 looks like this:
Business partner Contract Amount Number
G1 V1 100 1
G1 V2 420 (= 200+220 ) 2
G2 V1 470 (= 300+170) 2

The number field can be included in the line layout; it then counts the items in each summation level.

Note

You can define next variants for a totals variant.
