Different variants of USDL are required for different contexts. This is already shown by the Legal Module which requires different contents depending on the jurisdiction of a country. The issue aggravates if more and more parameters are relevant to determine the correct variant. The chapter presents one possible solution for variant management consisting of a canonical data model, a context driver mechanism, governance processes, and appropriate tooling. Although the solution for variant management is targeted at existing business documents, such as a purchase order, it provides a powerful and adequate means for dealing with USDL variants as well.
