Menu Item Suppression

The following points describe how your module configuration can suppress menu items.

  • Menu items that are owned by the base product (as opposed to those your implementation adds) are associated with one or more function modules. If your module configuration has turned off all of the menu item's modules, the menu item is suppressed. If at least one of the modules is accessible, i.e. turned on, the menu item is not suppressed.
  • If a menu line doesn't contain any accessible items, the menu line is suppressed.
  • If all lines on the Admin menu are suppressed, the menu itself is suppressed in the application toolbar. This is not expected to ever occur for the Main menu as the user preferences is on that menu and the expectation is that all users have access to their preferences.
  • Menu items that are suppressed are not visible in the Menu Item Search results.
