The following two sections provide more information on the navigationoptions via the SAP Easy Access menu and via transaction codes. Favoritesand links are discussed in Chapter 7, Maintaining the System Layout and UserData.

6.2 Navigating via the SAP Easy Access Menu

After you've logged on to the SAP system, it displays the SAP Easy Accessmenu as a tree structure on the left-hand side of the screen.

The SAP Easy Access menu offers a user-specific entry point and navigationoptions in the SAP system. In this context, “user-specific” means that the treestructure displays only those transactions with which you may work accord-ing to your role (see Chapter 13, The Role and Authorization Concept, fordetails on roles).

Via the SAP Easy Access menu, you can expand the tree structure, which con-tains the individual folders (nodes), by clicking on the button. You canclose it again with .

The folders themselves are identified with the buttons, (opened folder)or (closed folder). The executable transactions are marked with a buildingblock .

6.3 Navigating via Transaction Codes

Transaction codes help you quickly access the desired application withoutnavigating via the SAP Easy Access menu.

Theappendix of this book provides an overview of the most critical transactioncodes.

In thisexample, the path is Logistics > Sales and Distribution > Sales > Order >VA01 – Create.

How to Close All Folders in the SAP Easy Access Menu (Tree Structure)

If you want to close several folders and subfolders in the SAP Easy Accessmenu, you can close them all in one step. For this purpose, select Menu> Refresh or (Ctrl)+(F1).
