How to preselect a Work Center in the SAP Solution Manager

You can start the SAP Solution Manager Work Centers in your browser using the transaction SM_WORKCENTER. (Transaction SOLMAN_WORKCENTER starts the same function within the SAPGUI.) It's a nice idea to add this transaction to your Easy Access Menu favorites in the SAPGUI. However, if you have access to several work centers, it's useful to add several links in various folders to access specific work centers directly.

Instead of adding the transaction you can add the Web Dynpro Application AGS_WORKCENTER to the Easy Access Menu.

This application offers parameters to define the entry point.

If you omit these parametes you will see all work centers and the first one is active.

Setting the parameter WORKCENTER defines which work center will be displayed. All others are hidden.

Setting the parameter PRESELECTED_WORKCENTER defines which work center will be active. All others are visible as well.

Unfortunately, there is no value help for the work center available.

Here is the list of work centers you can choose:

You can construct the resulting URL manually as well. Here's an example:

https://server:port/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/ags_workcenter?PRESELECTED_WORKCENTER=DIAGNAV_MAIN_COMP&sap-language=EN
