The promenade screen.
At the top of the promenade screen is the name of whatever world your on and it's tech level, then underneith are a few graphical links to important features. Secure store", for storing items from your ship. "collection point" where you pickup anything someone has sent to you at that particular world, (including when you buy items from the player market), "view docked players" and "ship hanger" for when you own multiple ships. this is also where icons for the "Passenger office" for taking passenger missions, "bank", "manufacturing facility" or "engineering station" both needed in crafting show up.
Beneith this, is a list of the various shops and services of that promenade arranged as a table. The promenade lists the name, type of store, stock market value and lastly a view button. So you might see "Commercial store transport2, "csts", and "800" and a button labeled "view" which will take you to where you into the Commercial transport office and let you send your resources across the galaxies. These tables have propper formatting, so it's quite possible to use table navigation methods on them, though equally you can just go through the buttons.
it's also worth noting that the promenade menue is pretty much the standard for a massive number of menues in the game, with a few extra allowences for different buttons, from examining the results of scanning for wrecks, to looking at missions, so checking out how to navigate it quickly and efficiently is definitely to your advantage.
