system to validate your field entries and move to the
next function, or screen, in a system task. Note that
clicking on Enter does not save the information
you entered (see Save below). Save Click on the Save button when you want to save
data or save changes to data in a system task. Back Click on the Back button when you want to move
back to the previous screen or menu level. Exit Click on the Exit button when you want to exit
the current menu level or system task without
saving the data. Cancel Click on the Cancel button when you want to

Find Click on the Find button (binoculars) when you
want the system to search for words and alphanumeric
combinations in the open document or display screen. Continue Use the Continue Search button (the binoculars
with the + sign) to continue searching for a previously
selected search item. Paging These four Toolbar buttons are called the Paging
buttons. You use them to move through a long list or
report. To move to the first page, click the button with two
up arrows. To move up one page, click the button with the up arrow. To move down one page, click the button with the down
arrow. To move to the last page, click the button with two
down arrows. The yellow question mark is the Help button.
It displays generic (i.e., not MIT-specific) SAP Online
Help. Select a field or message, click the Help
button and a definition of the field or message will
be displayed. Not all fields have definitions, and not
all MIT workstations have the SAP Online Help installed
(due to disk space constraints on the specific workstation). Create a new SAP session. Displays a menu that lets you change some of the options
on your PC such as cursor size and position. Also allows
you to print your screen (Hardcopy). Keyboard Shortcuts Note: On some Macintosh computers, when you try to
use the Function keys, a dialogue box may appear saying that
your Function keys need to be set up in SAP. To enable your
Function keys, check the option not to display this message
again. Title
Bar Application
Toolbar Screen Body SAP has three field types, Required, Default, and
Optional:
Note
Some
fields that are optional in SAP are required
by MIT's business rules. SAP does not enforce
MIT business rules in this case. Status
Bar 1. The large field to the left displays system messages or
errors, such as "Make an entry in all required fields."
Double-click on the message or click the red circle and a
dialogue box pops up that explains the message and what action
to take. 2. The second field defaults to display the system information
such as system name, (session number), and (client number).
In the example above, the system is SF8, the session
number is (1) and the client number is (025).
If the Status Bar is closed on your PC, click the arrow in
the bottom right corner of the screen to open it. To change the information displayed in this area, click the
Selection List button to the right of the client number and
select from the list that pops up: 3. The third field to the right displays the host name, for
example, "ironwood." 4. The fourth field to the right indicates the input mode,
either overwrite or insert. Click to switch between the two
modes. You can close the second, third, and fourth fields. Click
the arrow to the left of the system name. To redisplay the
information, click the arrow in the right corner of the Status
Bar. |
