For fixed and database-dependent menu items you can specify list properties like display templates or object definition to be used. These properties determine how the table entries are displayed in the user interface result list.
TIP: You can define display templates for menu item, object definition, and table lists.
The display template is determined by the following in order:
-
List display template for the menu item
-
Object definition display template
-
Table display template
-
-
Create menu items you can use as references (links). Thus, the parts of the navigation interface an application uses several times, only need to be created once. The referenced menu items are always shown in navigation interface as opposed to the links.
-
Utilize variables in designing menu item names and display templates as well as in insert values and database queries.
TIP: Define the required variables in the menu item for the menu category. Variables are inherited within a hierarchical navigation. This means that variables in deeper levels of a hierarchy can be reused or overwritten. At run-time the actual value is passed to the variables.
-
To display menu items in the user interface, assign the menu items to the program. For example, the Manager.
-
Assign the menu items to permissions groups for non role-based and role-based login.
