Getting
Started A transaction code is a four-character command that tells
the system location of a task. Each SAP screen has a unique
transaction code. A transaction code may contain only letters
such as zstm or a combination of letters and numbers
such as me51. In SAP, you can use transaction codes as a shortcut or alternative
to using the navigation path to get to a system task. Type
/n followed by the transaction code and press the Enter/Return
key. For example, instead of following the navigation path User
Menu >> Role ZMIT>> Purchasing >> Requisitions
>> Create a Requisition from the SAP User Menu screen,
you can type /nme51 in the Command field of any screen.
In either case, the "Create: Purchase Requisition: Initial
Screen" is displayed. 1. Place the cursor in the Command field. (The Command field
is located in the Toolbar, see Getting
Started: SAP Screens.) 2. Type /n to end the current task, followed by the
transaction code. For example, to start creating a requisition type /nme51. 3. Press the Enter/Return key. Result: The "Create: Purchase Requisition: Initial
Screen" is displayed. Listed below are the commands used in combination with the
transaction codes.
Command + Trans Code Description /n + Transaction code End current system task and go to new system

without closing prior session /o List open sessions /i or /nend Log off
Note
The
/nzmit transaction code is no longer available
for accessing the MIT Financial System screen.
