| Overview of ERP LN |  |
| This section describes the structure of the ERP LN application. Package, module, and session The ERP LN application consists of packages, for example, Manufacturing, Financials, and Warehouse Management. Each package represents a functional area. A package is subdivided into modules, for example, Pricing Control, Purchase Control, and Sales Control. Every module has a number of sessions that enable you to perform specific tasks. In a session, you can maintain data and issue commands to process that data. Implementation specifics An organization can decide to implement only a selection of the packages. Furthermore, each module has parameters that influence the way that the application functions. Example If you select the Block if Credit Limit is Exceeded check box in the Sales Order Parameters (tdsls0100s400) session, ERP LN blocks sales orders for customers for which the credit limit has been exceeded. Client/server architecture ERP LN has a client/server architecture. On the background, the Enterprise Server package takes care of communications with the database, user authorizations, and so on. A client application provides the user interface. ERP LN comes with two different client applications: WebTop A client application that you run in an internet browser, without installing anything on the client workstation. Worktop A client application that you can use after it is installed on the client workstation. You can recognize the Worktop client by the icon in the title bar.
