Summary :
This SAP Note addresses differences in the behavior of SAP GUI for Windows within SAP Workplace and SAP Enterprise Portal as compared to standalone desktop launch. Diverse functionalities are affected by whether SAP GUI is initiated via an SAP shortcut or embedded inplace in the browser. Notable variations include the handling of logons, session creation, transaction initiations, and navigational responses. Additionally, with inplace SAP GUI, starting from version 620, the saplogon.exe or saplgpad.exe process launches instead of sapfront.exe. Configuration settings notably differ in the 'New Visual Design' mode and multiple sessions exhibit distinct behaviors whether opened within or outside the browser.
