Garret, If you have the indexing on the file correct and match it with the group break levels in the report then you don't need any variables. You just specify the calculation of the field as Sum by(...level...).
I must admit though that I still use variables as it is easier to change the report design and not miss a field that has the calculation field set incorrectly to another level break which is easy to do if you just insert another group level and copy fields over. I suppose old habits die hard.

Amazing how much you forget when you're not using something regularly...
