How to Create a Application Menu Item

To create a Application Menu Item, follow below mentioned configuration steps.
  • In Tools, Open Object explorer and expand Menu Object. By default it is not available, you need to add by adding it in View->options-> Object explorer-> Check "Menu"-> Then OK.
  • Query for "Generic WEB" (Most of applications use this Menu Type, you can check the menu used by your application by navigating to Application Object-> select your application and check for Menu Property).
  • Then Menu Item Child Object create a new record with following values.
    • Name = Tools - Test
    • Caption = Test
    • Command = Command to invoke once the user clicks menu item. I have used "Profile" Command which will navigate to user preference screen.To more about how to create a command you can refer my post here.
    • Position = 6.11 (This will show just below UserPreference Menu Item)
  • Compile changes and open application. You will see the change shown below. Once you click on it it will navigate to user preference screen.
