Definition

The locator allows you to search for business partners.

Structure

It consists of a tab with the tab pages Worklist and Search and can be displayed in various different ways, according to the setting made when you logged on to the system.

You can choose one of the following settings:

The locator is found in the left-hand screen area, and is thus available in parallel to the business partner dialog in the work area.

The locator is displayed on the entire screen. When you select a business partner you reach the business partner dialog, which is also displayed on the entire screen.

The business partner dialog is started without the locator and is displayed on the entire screen.

You can use pushbuttons on the left-hand edge of the screen to make the locator narrower and wider, and can choose various intermediate stages between the narrow and full screen locator. You can also switch directly to the full screen locator.

You can switch the locator on and off in order to enlarge the work area on your screen. To do this you choose the button Show/Hide Locator.

Tab Page Find

You can search for business partners and business partner categories (person, organization, group) by means of the tab page Find.

You can limit the search using various search criteria like number or search term. The hits are listed in the hit list beneath the search area. The hit list allows you to make a multiple selection.

Via the pushbutton Add to My Objects, you can transfer the selected business partners to the list of your personal objects on the tab page Worklist.

From the hit list you can go directly to the processing of the business partners, using the pushbutton Choose.

Tab Page Worklist

The tab page Worklist contains a list with selected objects.

You can display the following objects:

The history can be used for all transactions: When you leave the business partner dialog, the last ten search requests are saved.

You can add or remove one or more business partners from the hit lists of your personal objects.

You can branch directly to the display or change mode from the respective hit list.
