Creating a menu
You can create a menu in Unica Plan by modifying the sysmodules.xml file.
About this task
Before you can create a menu, the sysmodules.xml file must contain a module for the menu and a module for each item you want to include on the menu.
Procedure
- Open the sysmodules.xml file.
- Add a <module> element with a unique id value for the new menu.
- Ensure that a <module> exists for each menu item you
want to include on the menu.
Make a note of the id value for each one.
- Save and close the sysmodules.xml file.
- Open the sysmenu.xml file.
- To create the menu, add a <menugroup> element.
Enter the same id value for this element that you entered for the new menu <module> element in the sysmodules.xml file.
- To create menu items for the menu, add <menuitem>
elements to that <menugroup>.
Make sure that each <menuitem> element has an id value that is the same as one of the sysmodules.xml file <module> elements that you identified in step 3.
- Save and close the sysmenu.xml file.
- Restart the Unica Plan server.
- Click Settings > Plan Settings > Synchronize Menus.
