The header area cannot be changed by Customizing.

In the Customizing for the Postprocessing Office, you can also add your own tab pages for the order area and/or exchange tab pages, hide and/or change their sequence or title by choosing Order Data ® Display Tab Page Display in Order Area.

Order Data II

This tab page displays the component, the business process ID, and the postprocessing order ID.

Administrative Data

This tab page shows the user and time for the business process that created the postprocessing order. It also displays the user and time for the last change to the postprocessing order.

Object area

The object area is found directly under the order area and contains the most important data about the main, base and environment objects for the postprocessing order. The object area also enables you to navigate directly to the change/display functions of objects from the processing methods provided.

The processing methods provided in the object area depend on your settings in the Customizing for the Postprocessing Office under Object Types ® Define Processing Methods and Assign Object Types, and Assign Processing Methods to Functions.

You can also add your own tab pages for the object area, and/or exchange or hide tab pages, and/or the object key in the title in the Customizing for the Postprocessing Office under Object Types ® Define Tab Page Display in the Object Area.

Log Area

The log area is found directly under the object area and contains all other messages apart from the main message for the postprocessing order. If only the main message exists, the main message is displayed. If you double-click on a message, the system displays a more detailed message description (if one exists).

You can use the following functions in the pushbutton bar of the log:

You can use the symbols  Expand Log and  Reduce Log to change the size of the log area.

You can use the symbols  Log of Mass Run or  Message Log to go directly to the application log of the mass run or to the log for the selected message.

The symbols  (critical message),  (error message),  (warning) and  (success message) show the message type. You can use the filter functions to restrict the displayed messages to meet your requirements.
