Quick Access

Use

Quick Access enables you to configure navigation to OBN targets by passing parameters. You define in a Quick Access the navigation to one or more OBN targets using objects. If the user selects an action from a pushbutton, the OBN target is displayed at the position that you defined as the navigation target in the role menu of the PFCG. If you want to display the application within your page, use the display area.

All SAP GUI applications, Web Dynpro applications, and other Web applications are supported as navigation targets.

An object is identifed by its object key and consists of the following parts:

  • A title that you define in the display name of the object key.

  • One or more input fields with labels.

  • A button with which you can tgrigger one or more actions.

The figure below shows a Quick Access with two objects:
