- Layout
Definition for PI Sheets and Cockpits 
Use
You can freely define the layout of browser-based PI sheets and process manufacturing cockpits. If you do not specify a layout definition, the standard layout defined by SAP is used. The standard layout used was designed mainly for the browser-based PI sheet but is also used for cockpits. SAP may, however, make additional layouts available at a later date.
You can define the layout for PI sheets and cockpits as follows:
- You can display additional frames, such as another PI sheet, a process manufacturing cockpit, or an internet or intranet page, beside the PI sheet or cockpit.
To do so, you must
enter characteristic PPPI_LAYOUT in a process instruction. You can then enter,
for example, a frameset definition in the long text for characteristic
PPPI_LAYOUT.
- You can replace the standard layout with your own layout. You can, for example, define different layouts for different application areas.
To do so, you must
define your layout in an XSL style sheet and store it in the SAP System. You
enter characteristic PPPI_LAYOUT in a process instruction and refer to this
style sheet in the long text for characteristic PPPI_LAYOUT.
