  5. Choose Enter.

You exit the current task, and the initial screen of the new task appears.

Note

If you do not want to end your current task, but you need to do another task, you can create a new session.

For example, suppose you are creating a purchase order and you need to look at a table with exchange rates. You can open a session to look at the exchange rate table without having to end your first task of creating a purchase order.
