We click "Go" button on an application, there will pop up a screen which can't be spied by blueprism, then we need to press "Enter" on the keyboard to continue. How do we implement press "Enter" action in robot. What stage to be applied?

Deattach and attach to new button? Or Window global click and then global send key event ""{ENTER}"" ?

Sorry, i am fresh to blueprism, can't understand your comments about deattach and attach and Window global click. Would you explain in a bit of detail? Our current pracitce is accessing to application via Citrix, there have two layers need to login with account id and password. The first layer login we have built into robot successfully. After first layer login we can see an icon list of application for select one of them to login. Our issue occur when we click on the application icon, there will pop up an information screen with name of ""Windows Logon"", current action processor do is pressing ""Enter"" to load application login screen, while we don't know how to set BP to excute ""Enter"" press on ""Windows Logon"", BP can't detect this screen use application modeller .

IE Pop up dialogs are mentioned in both the Browser Automation guide and in Knowledgebase articles and in other forum threads - maybe do some digging before raising a new topic on the forum.   The solution to this question is always the same Christer's answer was along the correct lines but the best practice recommendation is to create a new object for your pop ups that attaches to it - if you attach to the correct IE process thread you should be able to use the Accessibility mode interface it identify and use elements.
