Breadcrumbs

Breadcrumbs enable you to keep track of the menus you have used to navigate to your current application. When clicked, each breadcrumb displays the associated menu and its submenus at the location of the breadcrumb. If you use breadcrumbs to navigate in EnterpriseOne, the breadcrumb string changes to reflect the new navigational path you have chosen. Breadcrumbs do not appear if you use Fast Path or EnterpriseOne Pages to launch an application.

The breadcrumb history is saved by default whenever you open any application using the Navigator drop-down menu.

To view or hide the breadcrumbs, click the Personalization menu, then the Preferences menu, and then select or deselect the Show Menu Breadcrumbs check box. Click Save and Close button to save your changes.

Click the drop-down menu icon located near the breadcrumbs to view the history and to access the application as required.

The breadcrumbs history is arranged in a chronological order. The path that you last accessed is listed first.

You can view and access the breadcrumbs history even after you log out and log in to the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne application.

The breadcrumbs history can be deleted by clicking the Personalization menu, then the preferences menu. Click on the Clear button in front of the Clear Breadcrumbs history option to delete the history of bread crumbs. Click Save and Close to save your changes.

If you clicked the Clear button but do not want to delete the breadcrumbs history, click the Undo button before you click the Save and Close button.

If you are a system administrator, the Server Manager interface for runtime and metric parameters provides details on the usage of each setting applicable to that parameter. Access this setting by clicking the "i" (Information) icon for a desired parameter. Breadcrumbs are enabled if both the Show Menu Breadcrumbs option on the Preferences menu (located on the Personalization menu), and the Enable Menu Breadcrumbs in the JAS.ini file are enabled.

The JAS.ini settings are in the Web Runtime section OWWEB.

Setting name = Enable Menu Breadcrumbs

The number of breadcrumbs that can be stored in the history can be defined in the JAS.ini file under the section OWWEB. The range for maxRecentBreadcumbs value should be set between 1 and 10.

If maxRecentBreadcrumbs property is not defined in JAS.ini, the system sets the maximum number of breadcrumbs history as 10.

If you are a system administrator, log in to the SM console and select the appropriate JAS server from the management dashboard. Navigate to the Configuration section of the selected JAS server and select Advanced option from the View drop-down menu. Click on the Web Runtime link in the configuration section. In the Web Runtime section, you can see a parameter called 'Maximum number of Recent Breadcrumbs'. The default value of this parameter is 10. You can change the value of this parameter from 1 to 10.
