Add a Menu Item to a Selected Menu
It may be necessary to add menu items to pre-configured menus, to exchange unwanted menu items for others, or to create a full menu from separate items by placing them into an empty menu shell. The Add button from the Menu Edit screen allows access to the Add Menu Item(s) screen. (The Menu Edit screen is called from the Edit button of the Event Resources screen - Business Management>Events>Resources>Edit).
