Main Menu Options

The Main Menu Options table briefly describes the options available in the core framework of the GUI. Applications, such as DSR, add additional menu items not presented here. Users belonging to groups with lesser permissions than administrative may only see a subset of the options listed. See Groups Administration regarding group permissions.

Note:

Users of an application, such as DSR, should be aware that some optional features do not appear in the main menu until those features are activated.
