my guess is that you have a custom keyboard with qmk firmware (why else use ANSI layout?). so pick a mofifier key in VIA and make it switch the keyboard to a different layer, then maybe set the A O U and maybe S keys to Ä Ö Ü and ß. if you're not running QMK, just buy a DE layout keyboard for god's sake.

This is not how umlauts and layouts work
