Does anyone know if it is possible to do the following.
We have a CRM type application which will have several customers, several offices, and contacts per customer. BO's (Customer, Office and Contacts)
We wanted to know if it is possible for the system to create a Vertical or Tree Menu based on BO's
So on the left side of our app we could have a tree menu which is created based on our Customers Clients so the hierarchical levels would be
Customer
Office.Name
Contacts.Name
Contacts.Name
Office.Name
Contacts.Name
Office 3
Contacts
Thanks

It wouldn't be exactly a menu, but you can link to various levels of BO info using a Custom Presentation.
I do something like that where I have what looks like a menu/list of Countries presented via a Custom Presentation. When the user clicks on a Country name, the country name is passed to the process which goes to a screen for that specific Country.

I would be very interested in seeing how this works. Has anyone managed to create a dynamic menu yet?tford wrote:You can do some things with Presentations that can function as a dynamic menu.

Hi Helen,
The BSV I referred to in my post from 10 years ago is no longer in use. Otherwise, I'd be glad to provide screenshots.
What exactly are you trying to accomplish? Perhaps someone can give some pointers.

Re: Tree Menu Question
We have a business object, BODoc. Attributes are Title, Type, Document (which is effectively a reference object to multiple documents relating to a title - the display would be a grid with links to the files in the storage system), ExpiryDate. For as long as the ExpiryDate has not been reached, we would like the Title to appear in the menu under “Documents” drop down. This Title should be clickable and should navigate to a view where the user can see the list of documents and download the relevant ones.

Re: Tree Menu Question
We enable client management of their Visual Perspective menus by using <<MyObject.MyAttribute>> tags in the Visual Perspective menu Name field and enabling disabling through expressions in the menu Condition when invisible field. This does not enable dynamic creation of new menu entries but its does enable the renaming and hiding of menus by the client. We use the LIRU for context and have reference BOs from it to store the menu names and visibility.
