ABC of the Enterprise systemAn enterprise system is built around an
integrated databaseA system such as SAP contains tens of
thousands of data tablesWhen a user creates, changes or views data in
the system, he or she performs a transactionData changed or created by one user can be
exploited by all other users (ex. reporting, tracking, execution of orders, etc.)
All transactions are traceable, transactions with financial impacts can be reversed, never erased
User interfaceUsers interact with the enterprise system
through transactions. A large number of pre-programmed
transactions exist in SAPEach transaction has a transaction code –
one can call a transaction if one knows the transaction code
The SAP menu allows to browse and find the desired transaction
One can create a user menu or a list of favorites with the commonly used transactions
SAP Menu & Navigation
Extras / Settings / Display Technical Names
Reports and queries
Reports and queries are transactions that allow users to view existing data
A typical query is performed as follows:In the first page of the transaction, you must
enter the selection criteria for the query (ex. Company code, product code, etc.)
Then, click on to execute the queryA table containing the requested data will
appearThe display and layout can sometimes be
modified
Entering new dataSome transactions are designed to change
or create new data (change forecast, release purchasing orders, change sale price, etc.)
The interface varies according to data required by the system
The system will not allow you to save information if all the compulsory fields have not been filled
You must save/release/confirm before exiting the transaction
Other useful buttonsUse the navigation buttons to go back or
get out of a transactionYou can open up to 6 sessions. Click on
to open a new sessionDelete , search , select all , view
, enter .
