Self Service Utility
The university uses the SAP Self Service utility for more and more facilities. Unfortunately the SAP vendor lock-in means that the compatibility requirements for the WEB browser are severe, in fact require at least an old version of Internet Explorer. This means that from any modern OS (like we run on the Linux desktops, or you run on your personal laptop) it is impossible to perform tasks inside the Self Service utility. Many function do not work in Firefox, Chrome or Safari!

So you first need to login to the Remote Werkplek and inside that environmentt you starts an Internet Explorer to the Self Service.
