By default, the SAP Logon Pad generates a pop-up warning each time a local file is accessed *or* a file is accessed from an external content management system.  

Due to the fact that docuflow DocManager does this...a LOT!, it is recommended that you disable this warning pop-up to avoid end-user frustration.

Follow the steps below to avoid this pop-up message:

- From the SAP GUI Logon Pad, choose:
- for Windows: Click on the top left icon and select Options or Preference (depending on your SAP GUI version):
