Menus

The PermeAgility framework creates menus dynamically based on what the user is allowed to access in the security configuration. 

Menus are organized into groups and items are styled using the style sheet.  For more information about style sheets, see Presentation styles.

Configuring menus

Menus are managed in the menu table and menu items are configured in the menuItem table.  These tables are used for both menu configuration and security.  All functions in the system are secured through menu items, each menu item will only be presented to a user if they are in one of the roles assigned to the menu item.  Note that some menu items do not need to appear on any menus but may be needed for authorization.  (All functions in the system must be authorized with this mechanism)

Open Tables to access the menus

To configure a menu click the Menu table

Click the menu row to edit.

In the menu editor, you can add, remove or reorder menu items.  The menu can also be disabled by deactivating it. (Do not do this to the default menu).

Menu items can be managed similarly

For more information on the security configuration see Security.
