2. Full Screen Work Manager
While using the new Work Manager you will soon notice that every screen is Full
Screen. For example the status screen will now load full screen, this is because of
the way the new work manager is designed to work. Everything loads in one
screen instead of multiple screen like the older version. This allows the screens to
load quicker than before particularly in inspection work orders looking at measure
points.

3. X Button on Work Manager Screens and New Back Buttons


The X button in question is highlighted below. This is now solely an exit and close
button. You can use this if you want to close and log out of Work Manager.

You will also see highlighted a Back arrow in the Top Left corner, this has been
introduced by SAP as a standard back button to go back to where you came from.
This is on all screens and should be used to go back one step.

5. Auto Transmit – Possible Error Messages


Whilst using Work Manager with the Auto Transmit there are occasions where you
might get an transmit error pop up. These pop ups will generally be caused by
someone changing or updating the job you are working on. The below is an
example of what you might see.

When these occur you have 2 options, Continue will try the auto transmit again
and if the job is now available to be updated the transmit will go through. If the pop
up returns you can choose Off-Line. Off-line will disable Auto Transmit and you will
be able to continue using Work Manager as normal. You will remain Off-Line until
you choose to go back On Line or the next time you Log into Work Manager and
Choose Connect.
