    Frame chain is a feature of the SAP Enterprise Portal (EP) that allows users to navigate between different portal pages. It is a chain of frames that are linked together, allowing users to move from one page to another without having to reload the entire page. The frame chain is part of the EP-PIN Portal Infrastructure, which provides a secure and reliable platform for accessing and managing enterprise data. 
    
    How to use it: 
    To use the frame chain, users must first log into the EP-PIN Portal Infrastructure. Once logged in, they can navigate between different portal pages by clicking on the links in the frame chain. The frame chain will display all of the available pages and allow users to quickly move between them. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When navigating through the frame chain, users should be aware of any security settings that may be in place. Some pages may require additional authentication or authorization before they can be accessed. Additionally, users should be aware of any timeouts that may be in place, as this could cause them to lose their progress if they take too long to navigate between pages.
