Hello Luk
I did not really understood your question: but may be I can give you hints:
1.) in the generation variant you can define how the "validity area" is used (validity area of a VAT in combination with validity area of genvar) . This can be done without using "G groups" in the template.
If I remember correct you can select:
a.) that the validity area must be exactly the same (VAT and Genvar)
That means if your VAT is DE and genVar DE then the value is selected; if VAT is BE and GenVar DE than it is not selected
b.) validity area is a "superset"
if VAT is DE and GENVar is REG_WORLD logic is DE is part of REG_WORLD therefore value is selected
etc.
There are I believe four values which change the behaviour in VAT selection for WWI report => IMPORTANT: this behaviour is indipendent if or if not you use a G Group (but if you have used a G Group the topic is more be complex)
These four values are defined as:
1:1
intersection
subset
superset
PLease refer to SAP documentation regarding explanation of these options.
2.) You can always use ratings on VAT level in combination with genvar to select data
Primitive Example
VAT 1: Usage = Rating 1/DE
VAT 2: Usage = Rating 2/DE
VAT 3: Usage = Rating 3/DE
GenVar 1 uses Rating 1 and DE to select data
GenVar 2 uses Rating 2 and DE to select data
Genvar 3 uses Rating 3 and DE to select data
Result: WWI report wih genvar 1 contains only VAT 1 and so on
Now as you may be now you can use rating hierarchies in VAT selection. That means you can define GenVar like this:
Priority Rating
1 Rating 1
2 Rating 2
3 Rating 3
Now you can use at the same time more than one usage per VAT. Example:
VAT 1: Usage = Rating 1/DE
VAT 2: Usage = Rating 2/DE
VAT 3: Usage 1 = Rating 3/DE
VAT 3: Usage 2 = Rating 1/DE
In This case the WWI report would contain VAT 1 and VAT 3 because the rating of VAT fits the definition of genvar in combination of validiyt area of VAT with Validity area of genvar.
The "G group" is normally used only in such circumstances in which you have the need to print more than one language.
Explanation: by creating the WWI report you define the "main" language. Using now a "G group" you can can select data from EH&S and then print more than one language in the same report. This techniques is used very often during label generation. Here you have very often the need to print the same data with several languages in a WWI document (like R sentences).
May be this helps.
With best regards
C.B.

Section Generation Variant
Topic: Validity area and here: "Leading validity areas" and " Discrete validity areas"
PPS: The "primary" selection criteria to get data in a WWI report is always the "rating" and not the validity area. Therefore if your VAt does have a rating which is not used in the defintiion of the genvar it is not selected in this WWI report
As a second criteria for selection teh validity are of VAT is analysed in combination with validiyta area efinition of genvar (based on mode of expand of validity area)
The "G Group" is a very "special" WWI technique. PLease read carefully the SAP documentation.
