ProcedureAdjusting Calls for SAP GUI Applications

 

Aside from Web Dynpro applications, you can also call SAP GUI applications in Work Centers.

If you are working in a Work Center using SAP GUI for Windows, the system automatically opens the called application in a new SAP GUI mode. If you are working in a Work Center using a Web browser, where possible the system opens the called application in a new mode with the HTML version of the SAP GUI (SAP GUI for HTML).

Since specific SAP GUI application are not compatible with the SAP GUI for HTML version, in these cases the system only calls specific application using SAP GUI.

You can adjust this default call in the Web browser.

Note Note

If you have to switch frequently between SAP GUI for Windows and SAP GUI for HTML, your system administration can enter the Web Dynpro application AGS_WORK_GUI_DEFAULT_SET for the corresponding Work Center roles in the navigation area under Associated Links.

End of the note.
