Afterward, select the save option to access the variant configuration screen.

After entering all the objects, save the variant in a similar manner as mentioned for the transport variant above.
To ensure easy identification of various variants in the future, it is important to assign a suitable name for the activation object, just like you would do for a transport variant.
Activating Objects in SAP: Variant for Activating Objects Listed in External Table
This variant can be reused everytime, because it simply references the table TACOB in which the objects can be listed.
After you have created the preferred variant, you can set up a background task to execute it.
If you are using an external table, it is necessary to first list the objects in the TACOB table by accessing TCode SM30.
To initiate the background task, access TCode SM36 and input an appropriate name.
In the “Step” just enter the report RADMASG0_C3 and state the variant you prepared previously.
You have the option to initiate it right away or set a specific time for commencing the task.
The job overview allows for regular monitoring of the runtime.
If you decide to generate a database log, you can locate it by using TCode RM_97.
Execute the program and select your log from the available options in the list.
The log should give you detailed information about any errors (or success messages):
Even though there is no official information available, it appears that RADMASG0_C3 offers a notable benefit of quicker activation time compared to RADMASG0. This is achieved by leveraging parallel processing capabilities.
Here is a comparison – enabling the identical objects in RADMASG0.
To activate multiple objects simultaneously in SAP, you can utilize the RADMASG0_C3 report through a background job (SM37). This method allows for scheduling activations during system downtimes and avoids blocking a GUI session. Furthermore, it significantly reduces activation time, which is particularly beneficial when dealing with central tables like MARA and accommodating numerous users on the system. If necessary, database logs can be generated and examined using TCode RM_97.

Checking inactive objects in SAP Tcode: A guide
In simple terms, activating an object in SAP refers to making it active or usable within the system. When an object is marked as inactive, it means that it cannot be accessed or utilized until it has been activated again. Inactive objects can include various components such as programs, screens, tables, and more.
To activate these inactive objects in SAP, one can use SE80 – a development environment tool provided by SAP. By navigating through SE80 and selecting “Inactive Objects,” users can easily locate and activate any desired object within their assigned scope or area of responsibility.
Overall Steps:
1) Open SE80.
2) Select “Inactive Objects” from the dropdown menu.
3) Enter the relevant username (if required).
4) Review the list of inactive objects displayed.
5) Choose and activate desired objects accordingly.
