SAP R/3 for Everyone: Step-by-Step Instructions, Practical Advice, and Other Tips and Tricks for Working with SAP
| Many end users access the SAP system through an application window that is displayed directly on their computer monitor's desktop, or what is called the client server GUI. However, it is also possible to access the system through a Web browser such as MS Internet Explorer. When you access SAP through a Web browser, the SAP application window appears within the frame of the browser's application window (Figure I-27). For the most part, the design and operation of this Web GUI are identical to the design and operation of the desktop window, except in one regard: the menu bar and standard toolbar are collapsed onto the application toolbar, where they are represented by buttons. Figure I.27. The SAP application window is condensed in design when it appears inside the frame of a Web browser window: Its menu bar and standard toolbar are collapsed onto its application toolbar. Click the Menu button to reveal the menu headers. The commands of the Favorites menu are shown in this image.
For example, Figure I-27 shows the design of the SAP Easy Access screen within the Web browser window.

You need only click the Menu button to display and maneuver to all its familiar command menus and submenus, and click the Tool button to display and select from its commands. |
