Delete an Activex container on the SAP screen using del()
Add a group box to create a launchpad
Add four pushbuttons with various functionalities defined
Add functionality to create a material
Add functionality to assign values to create a sales order

//Create this file inside your script folder for customizing the SAP Easy Access screen: SAPLSMTR_NAVIGATION.E0100.sjs
//Now, let's add the Liquid UI script to the above file and save it.

Delete an Activex container on the SAP Easy Access screen using the del command.
```
//Deletes an image container
del('X[IMAGE_CONTAINER]');
```

Add a group box to create a launchpad.

//Creates a groupbox with Launch Pad as title 
box([2,4],[6,50], "Launch Pad");

Add four pushbuttons at various places with different functionalities defined, as shown below.

// Creates a toolbar pushbutton that runs a process with parameters to defined create a material 
pushbutton( [TOOLBAR], "Create Material",{"process":createMat, "using":{ "v1":"BEARINGS", "v2":"C", "v3":"FERT" }});
// Creates a pushbutton on the groupbox and navigates to va01 screen onclick
pushbutton([4,6], "Create Sales Order", "/nva01"); 
// Creates a pushbutton on the groupbox and navigates to mm01 screen onclick
pushbutton([4,28], "Create New Material", "/nmm01");
// Creates a pushbutton that executes a function with series of steps defined
pushbutton([10,20], "@4D\\QCreate a Std. Sales Order@Std. Sales Order",{"process":va01_process,"size":[2,24]});

Add a function titled createMat with pre-defined steps to assign values to the fields to Create Material.

//Create a function titled createMat to assign the values to the Create Material fields.
function createMat(param){
  onscreen 'SAPLSMTR_NAVIGATION.0101'
  enter('/nmm01');
	
  // Create Material (Initial Screen)
  onscreen 'SAPLMGMM.0060'
  set('F[Material]', param.v1); set('F[Industry sector]',param.v2);
 
  set('F[Material Type]',param.v3);
  enter('/5');
  onscreen 'SAPLMGMM.0070'  
  set('cell[TABLE,0,1]','X');
  set('cell[TABLE,0,4]','X');     
  set('cell[TABLE,0,6]','X');   
  set('cell[TABLE,0,12]','X');  
  set('cell[TABLE,0,13]','X');   
  set('cell[TABLE,0,14]','X');
  enter('/6');
  onscreen 'SAPLMGMM.0080' 
  set('F[Plant]','1000'); 
  set('F[Stor. Location]', '0001'); 
  enter();
  onscreen 'SAPLMGMM.4004' 
  set('F[Base Unit of Measure]','TO'); 
  set('F[Division]', '09');
  set('#[2,32]', 'Finished Product');
  set('F[Material Group]', '0001');
  enter('/11');
}

Add a function labeled va01_process to navigate to the Sales Order screen and assign values to the required fields automatically.

//Creates a function to assign the values for fields automatically
 function va01_process(){
  onscreen 'SAPLSMTR_NAVIGATION.0100'
