In this session, we will get started using SAP Business One.
After this session you will be able to log on to and navigate in SAP Business One. You will also be able to set up a personalized cockpit tailored to a role and save it as a template.
Summary:
A company is represented as a database inside SAP Business One. When you log into SAP Business One, you choose the company to log into.
There are two types of users: superusers and normal (or end) users. Superusers have access everything. End user are restricted by authorizations to functions related to their jobs.
There are two menus. A horizontal menu bar displays at the top of the screen and the main Modules menu is on the left.
Commonly-used menu bar functions are also represented as icons in a toolbar. The toolbar appears under the menu bar.
A menu search allows you to quickly find items in the Modules menu.
Users can personalize their cockpit to suit their needs. Users can rearrange, delete or add widgets from a widget gallery.
Using authorization groups with an assigned cockpit template is an easy way to assign role based cockpits. Four delivered role-based cockpit templates that map to four authorization groups provide widgets tailored to a user’s daily operations and analytic needs.
Authorized users can modify or create new cockpit templates and authorization groups.
Users can change their display settings opening My Personal Settings.
Additionally users can hide menus and items in the Modules menu by using Form Settings.
