Reference: IMS Fast Paths

By using fast path navigation, you can move directly to a panel instead of navigating through a series of panels to reach the one that you want.

  1. Tab over to Options on the Action Bar and press Enter.
  2. Key in 2 (Set Preferences) and press Enter.
  3. Set mnemonics to ON and press Enter. Exit from this panel.
  4. Now you can use a fast path from any panel that has an Action Bar.
  5. Enter the mnemonic string in the home entry field at the upper left of the panel and press Enter. The panel you selected displays.
