Portuguese term or phrase: barra de menus superior
Clique com o botão direito do mouse na barra de menus superior, onde ficam
os botões Calendário e Contatos.

I do not recall seeing much of "menus" in Portuguese manuals, so when I read the above mentioned text I stumble upon it. Is it better to avoid "menus"? What do you think?

Thank you!

Explanation:
I'm an ex SAP consultant. The main menu bar on the screen is simply known as the Menu bar. Please see the documentation I've linked you to.

Really you need SAP access to translate SAP documentation effectively.

...but if your translation is NOT for SAP, the other answer could be correct. However, you say it's SAP, hence my reply.
