Understanding Menus

You can create two types of menu definitions using Application Designer:

• Custom (component) menus provide an internal reference for components and pages. They are grouped logically into menu groups to assign security. They are not used for navigational purposes.

  A menu is a logical grouping of components for assigning security to your system. You create a menu as an organizer for components. After you save a menu, use the Registration Wizard to assign components and security.

• Classic pop-up menus definitions include definitions for pop-up links. These pop-up links are displayed when a user clicks a button associated with a page field on a classic page.
