SAP Logon
The SAP graphical user interface (GUI) is the front-end program used to access SAP systems. Several variants of the SAP GUI are available and are adapted for use in different environments.
The SAP GUI program connects the front-end computer to a specific SAP system. To start the SAP GUI, SAP provides another program, SAP Logon. When the user launches SAP Logon, a screen displays a list of available SAP systems. This list is derived from a file on the front-end computer and is preconfigured and made available to users.
Logon Screen of an SAP System
If you want to use more processing windows, you can work in several sessions (processing windows of the SAP system) simultaneously within one logon. With the system parameter, your system administrator can specify how many sessions are possible for one logon to an SAP system.

With the customizing of the local layout you can, among other things, make the following settings:
Select a different color schema for your GUI, or change the font settings.
Determine the speed at which the tooltip is displayed and specify which messages (success message, warning message, error message) are to be displayed in a dialog box.
Manage the input history for input fields.
Determine that in addition to the description, the key of an entry is displayed in dropdown lists, and whether the entries are sorted according to keys or descriptions (You can recognize a dropdown list by on the right-hand side in the input field).
