Creating Favorites in the SAP Easy Access Menu

You can use your favorites to start an application or transaction without having to select it in the navigation tree. The Favorites folder enables you to easily bundle a group of transactions that you currently use frequently. You can also open websites from your favorites list. You can add applications, transactions, and websites that you use frequently to your favorites. By default, this list is displayed in the upper area of the SAP Easy Access menu, but can also be moved to the lower area. In general, you can organize, add, display, rename, and delete your favorites in this area.
