You can link to applications and to external URLs and you
can add menus and buttons to organize application navigation.
Navigation components
There are several ways that you can integrate a new application
into the existing navigation and you can add new navigation components
if required.
Linking to an external URL
You can create a link to an external website from an application
using a hyperlink control.
Adding buttons to the application toolbar or Common Actions menu
You can include extra buttons on the application toolbar
or in the Common Actions section of the side navigation menu. Toolbar
buttons provide quick access to common actions, such as Save and Insert,
and can be seen in all application tabs or can be limited to a specific
tab.
Adding buttons next to text boxes
You can add buttons next to text boxes for the menu items
that are most frequently used. You can add up to three buttons to
a text box.
Modifying links in a self-service application
To change the links in the application bar of a self-service
application, you must configure a property in the presentation.xml file
for the application. You can configure these links for a self-service
application that you duplicated from an existing application or for
a new self-service application that you create.
