# Web Client

## Customizing the Shortcut Bar

| The shortcut bar, which appears below the menu bar in the Web Client window, contains a standard set of buttons that users can click to perform common operations. The buttons that make up the standard set are listed below, with their equivalent menu commands. To customize the shortcut bar you can add, modify, and remove buttons. Inbox – opens the user's Inbox (Start > Inbox) Search – opens the multi-object search pane (Start > Search) Create – starts the Create wizard (Start > Create) Link – starts the Link wizard (Start > Link) Logout – ends the current Web Client session and releases a concurrent license immediately (Start > Exit) Help – opens the Contents page for the Web Client online Help (Help > Contents) ### What to do:
| Log into the Windows Client as a user who has sufficient access rights to modify EDBKERNEL records.
| Click to open the Menu Data form.
| Search for the menu named WEB_TLB_BUT_SHX.
| In the Selection Assignments subform, add, edit, and delete records to create the set of shortcut buttons you want.
| The following table describes required fields used by the Web Client to configure buttons on the shortcut bar. Note that you can use the Parameter field to customize the initial display of the main pane, which shows the multi-object search pane by default.
Field Title | Definition | Description
Selection Name | String | Defines the name of a menu item
Sequence | Numeric | Defines the numerical position of a menu item
Selection Text | String | Defines the text of a menu item
Access | String | Defines the access privileges for a menu item
Userexit | String | Defines the name of the function performed by a menu item
Parameter | String | Defines a usx parameter required by the userexit When the expression is set to "true" for a menu item, its function provides the default content for the Web Client main pane. Example: usxParam=SEARCH/defaultContent=true
| To add separators to menus of all kinds—including top menus, pop-up menus, button areas, and toolbars—use the predefined menu selection EDB-BAS-LINE. Do not use the @LINE userexit to define your own selections, because the Web Client does not support this.
| The shortcut bar can be defined individually for any user. Open the DataView default data WEB_TLB_BUT_SHX, insert a new user in the User colum and insert a new menu name in the Value column!.
