Configure Web Menus

EMS Web App includes a default menu structure with parent and child menu items. The structure determines which menu items appear and the order in which they appear.

You can add custom menu items that link to pages in EMS Web App or external websites.

  1. On the EMS menu bar, select Configuration > Everyday User Applications > Web App Menus.

    The Web App Menus window lists the parent and child menu items in alphabetical order.

  2. Select New.

  3. Enter the menu item information.
