Specifying the Application Type of a Role Menu Entry

Context

In PFCG link lists and PFCG favorites lists role menu entries for users can be filtered by specific criteria. All entries assigned to an application type are automatically put in the link list provided the link list is restricted to this application type. You can specify the following types:

  • Type: Create

    Identifies all entries of transactions that create new business objects.

  • Type: Report

    Identifies entries that refer to reports.

  • Type: Search

    Identifes entries of transactions that execute queries.

If you want to filter by other criteria, put the required applications in the same menu node and in the configuration assign a PFCG alias to this node. See also: Defining a PFCG Alias for an Application

Procedure

  1. You are in transaction PFCG on the Menu tab. Select the menu entry you want, and choose Further Node Details.
  2. Under Application Type select a category and save it.
