Object Navigator 
Purpose
You can use the Object Navigator to organize your programming in an integrated development environment. The Object Navigator incorporates several browsers used for various development purposes:
● Repository Browser (Started by default)
● Repository Information System
● Transport Organizer
● MIME Repository
● Tag Browser
● Test Repository
The Object Navigator is a central point of entry to the ABAP Workbench and you can access it by means of the SE80 transaction.
Features
Structure
The Object Navigator has two main areas: navigation area and tool area.
The navigation area is used for the hierarchical display of lists of development objects, also known as object lists. The list of the currently active browsers is also displayed there. For more information, see Navigation.
The tool area is not a part of the Object Navigator. It just provides the window where various development tools are opened.
Components of the Interface
The following figure represents the appearance of the Object Navigator main screen. It is divided into a tool area, navigation area and additional windows.
Context Menu
In both areas you can select functions from a context menu, which you can access by means of the secondary mouse button. The options available in the context menu are different for the different development objects.
Overview of Development Objects
In the Object Navigator you have a complete overview of the development objects. While you are editing an object you can still see the other lower- or higher-level objects belonging to the same program, package, and so on.
User-Specific Views
You can add development objects that you use often to a List of favorites. If you need to return frequently to the same objects during a single work session, you can include them in a worklist.
