Settings in the RE Navigator

You can make additional settings for the RE Navigator. In the menu of the RE Navigator, choose Extras ® Settings. If you want to adopt the default settings from Customizing, select the Use System Settings indicator.

To make your own settings for the RE Navigator (rather than using the system settings), deselect this indicator and proceed as described below.

 

Navigation tab page

Settings for the initial screen and for the navigation area:

·        Hide Navigation Area: Set this indicator if you want the navigation area for all master data dialogs to be turned off as a default. You can still display the navigation area again in each master data dialog by choosing  with the quick info text Navigation Area On/Off (F9).

·        Display of Navigation Area: You can have the system display the navigation area as a fixed part of the screen (choose: As Part of Window) or in a separate window.

·        Direct Display of Objects When Selected: If you set this indicator, an object selected in the browser (such as business entity 0001/1) is not only displayed in the tree structure but also displayed directly in the detail view.

·        Use Standard Icons: If you want to use the standard icons  and   instead of the icons assigned in Customizing, set this indicator.

·        Max. Number of Last Objects: Here you can specify whether the last real estate objects that were called up should be available for selection and how many you want to see. These last objects are also displayed under  with the quick info text Favorites. To delete the list, choose.

·        In the Browser Selection group box, you can specify which additional functions (such as resubmission) should be available.

 

General tab page:

·         Initial Screen: Here you can select the initial screen (help text, background picture, own picture) for the transaction. If you do not select the help text, you still can display or hide it by choosing .

·         Error List: Specify here whether the error list should appear in a modeless window. Furthermore, you can specify here that errors are displayed in a tree structure. However, this setting can only be made for a modeless window.

·         Display for Object Processing: Here you can make settings for the standard behavior of objects, for example, whether the object should always be called in display mode or in change mode.

 

Visible Selection Objects tab page

·        Here you can specify the objects that you want to have available for selection. In this way you can reduce the objects displayed in the dropdown box to those you really need.

 

Background Picture

If you selected Display Background Picture for the initial screen, you can make additional settings for the background picture. Right-click the background picture and choose Settings. Deselect the Use System Settings indicator, if it is set.

Several background pictures and a default initial screen are available. You can also load one of your own pictures from the SAP Web Repository (transaction SMW0) into the system for use as a background picture. For this, choose Specify Own Graphic for the background picture. The Own Background Graphic field is then ready for input and you can enter the object ID of the picture.

You can determine the type of display of the selected picture (such as normal or stretched) by making an entry in the Display Mode field.
