Menu Conditions

See Also

You can provide conditional access to menu options for specific user groups and users.

EXAMPLE:

Suppose the Travel Agency application has one generic TRAVEL_MAIN menu page for all user groups. The underlying menu structure contains a menu entry leading to the Staff Members info window.

However, only the STAFF user group is allowed to access this menu option. Other user groups, such as GUIDE, are not allowed to access this menu option. For these other user groups, the Staff Members menu option must be hidden.

Note that this behavior differs from providing table rights on the STAFF_MEMBER table in the Authorizer.

It is possible to specify different menu structures for different user groups, with different First Menu Pages. However, for this purpose, it is easier to specify conditional behavior for specific menu options.
