Introduction to SAP ABAP Screen Navigation

To understand SAP ABAP, you must have basic knowledge about screens such as Login, ABAP Editor, Logout and so on. In this Tutorial we will discuss the SAP ABAP screen navigation and its standard toolbar functions.

Login Screen

After logging into the SAP server, the SAP login screen will ask for a User ID and Password. You must provide a valid user ID and password and press Enter (the user id and password are provided by the system administrator). Next is the login screen.
