• Click   to open a secondary browser window and display the Enterprise Buyer 2.0 Desktop Edition Help home page.

Header Area

The header area appears immediately below the banner, and indicates the page title and a brief explanation of what you can do on the page.

Tabs

If the page offers a number of optional forms or reports for you to use, then Tabs are displayed below the header area and at the right-hand side of the browser window.

Click a tab, to access the information or input form shown on that tab. For example, to select a different shopping method in the RoundTrip page header, illustrated above, click on the Search Catalog, Favorite Items, Special Request or Shopping Cart tab.    

Workspace

The workspace forms the body of browser pages. In the workspace there may be:

• A group of fields used to set up a catalog or database search, or to filter and sort the results of that search. The fields may allow you to:
  • Enter free-form text, numbers, or wildcard characters

• A table of results from a search, containing of a table header, item rows, columns, bottom bar, and other pages elements, such as Actions icons indicating further things you can do with the results in the table, such as print the table, or expand a row to show more details.
