Hint: Use transaction search_sap_menu to find menu path (if in menu) of any SAP transaction.

Introduction

SAP transactions can be executed either from the SAP Menu or by using a transaction code. This post explain how to find the menu path if you have the transaction code.

Example

You use the transaction LT03 (Create Transfer Order) but don’t know where to find it in the SAP Menu . Execute transaction: search_sap_menu

Enter

The result is the menu paths of all the places where the transaction can be found.
