Example

The URL is a value displayed in your browser’s Address field. You can append a parameter list to control the URL that opens the POD.

To access the URL and parameter list in the POD shortcut, right-click the shortcut on the desktop and choose Properties. The URL appears in the URL field. The URL parameter list begins with the question mark (?).

The parameter list is a set of name-value pairs that take the following form:

?name1=value1&name2=value2&name3=value3&...

Each name is the name of an element, such as OPERATION, and each value is the corresponding value for that name, such as ABC, in OPERATION=ABC. A question mark (?) separates the requested URL from the parameter list. Then each name-value pair is listed, separated by the ampersand (&).

You can access predefined and customized Operation, Work Center, and Message Board PODs by changing the following URLs:

Operation POD URL

http://<servername>:<serverport>/manufacturing/com/sap/me/wpmf/client/template.jsf?WORKSTATION=OPERATION_DEF&ACTIVITY_ID=DEF_OPER_POD&LOGOUT=true

Work Center POD URL
