If other systems and options are installed with Enterprise Buyer 2.0 Desktop Edition, you may also access the applications or their administration tools from the Services menu.
At the right-hand side of the Home page, is a drop-down menu from which you may choose which Buying Organization catalog you wish access when shopping today. Only those Buying Organizations to which you have been subscribed by you Administrator are valid options in this drop-down menu.
If you are subscribed to only one Buying Organization, then you may ignore this menu.
