To perform business tasks, such as order processing and data analysis, you navigate and work with data in the user interface (UI). You can use tools for entering data, filtering and sorting data, creating comments, and printing reports. You can also customize the UI to fit your personal preferences.

Apart from the application-wide foundation of general functions, a number of application-wide ERP features, such as Document Approvals, are used across multiple application areas as opposed to the area-specific features that relate to different departments. For more information, see Work with Application-Wide Features.

The following table describes a sequence of tasks, with links to the topics that describe them.
