Menu editor

and comfortable way, to control the appearance and to link the menu
entries with the respective actions. The menus can be specified in
dependence of the user role and thus privileged actions can be realized.

language entries in your application. You can directly select which
languages you want to release for your clients and which not. You can
create own languages and translate the entries by means of clear
reference tables, if necessary. The translation editor also supports
you when searching for missing or problematic entries.

infosystem from abas ERP into the Internet. Using this tool the fields
that are to be displayed on the Web pages are selected and configured.

Syntax highlighting, an automatic suggestion list for tags and
formattings.

pages. For that purpose you can use the graphical view which is also

ERP business functionality by using the Web service editor. An authentication can precede the service with only a few worksteps.
Adjustable design
The design is controlled via a single central CSS document (with
different CSS sub-documents). Globally valid changes can thus be
carried out. It is possible to completely reverse the design (during
runtime). Visual elements can be folded in a space-saving manner, their
order can be changed and hidden completely. Table columns can be shown
or hidden if needed (from CeBIT 2006).
Adjustable user guidance
The presentation layer of abas eB is based on the open source framework
Struts. A separation of presentation and application logic is obtained
by using Struts. This increases overview and maintainability. Moreover,
there is the possibility to combine existing functionalities with
individual functions and thus to control the user guidance in any way.

There are upgrade secure areas available to do so, which will not be
changed when upgrading abas eB. This means that your adjustments remain
from version to version. Thus, the costs for upgrading will be lowered
and unnecessary new or double developments will be avoided.
Configuration via abas ERP

ERP, e.g. user settings and settings for the application. This has the
advantage that they can be easily changed in the running operation.
