You have a option to create a short cut/Link on the desktop for your SAP application. This can be done by clicking the 'Create a ShortCut' Icon on the SAP Menu bar.

If you take a Command prompt and run this

(make sure you run the link in the command by putting " "

eg., <b>"Short cut name.sap"</b> especially since it contains spaces in between),

it will navigate to the SAP application for which the shortcut has been created.

Hi

I hope you can't execute a SAP tcode from the DOS/Windows command prompt.

You have to execute from the SAP screen command prompt only

Just ask your basis person whether he can execute it from DOS/Windows Command prompt?

Go to the command prompt (CMD) and change to the directory where the SAPGUI software is located. Then, run: sapgui <hostname> <instance> Example: sapgui sapprd 00 This is a very fast way to start a SAPGUI session against the indicated SAP system and instance number.

another way is to locate the file of logon pad

in my system it was at C:\WINDOWS\SAPwksta\setup\SAL

after that type saplogon.sal

It will take you to the logon pad.
