Contents of the Manage BI Menu Content Screen
Use the fields and options to configure the Manage BI Menu Content screen. After filling out the fields, click Save.
Field | Description |
---|---|
Show | Select either Yes if you like the menu item to display on the Menu tab or No if otherwise. You can add a menu item and keep it hidden until it is needed. An example of this is when a report is seldom used, for example, once a year. You can keep it hidden until it is time to display it for users to access. |
Add-on modules, such as Fixed Assets, are hidden by default, but you can choose to show them if needed. | |
Source | This field always displays Custom when you are adding a new menu item. It displays Deltek when the menu item has been pre-populated by Costpoint BI. Pre-populated items cannot be removed, but can be hidden. |
Parent Folder | Select the parent folder for the menu item that you like to add. For example, if you like to add a menu item under General Ledger, select General Ledger as Parent Folder. The values in the Parent Folder drop-down list are limited to those found in and the standard parent folders in Costpoint BI. Sub-folders are not supported at this time for custom content. |
Object Type | Select the type of object for the menu item that you like to add. For example, select Report for the Custom Income Statement menu item. |
NAME | Enter the name of the item exactly as how they are indicated on the Company Content tab. For example, you created a report with name, Custom Income Statement found in Company Content. Enter Custom Income Statement as name on the Manage BI Menu Content screen. |
Description | Add a description for the menu item. You will see this description whenever you hover over the menu item on the Menu tab. |
Sort Order | Enter the sort number for the menu item as you would like it to display under the parent folder on the Menu tab. |
