Procedure documentationTop-Level Navigation Locate this document in the navigation structure

 

The top-level navigation bar is your entry point for navigating through the content assigned to your roles. Depending upon your portal settings, it consists of either:

  • One level of tabs

    The first level tabs are your highest-level folders and usually reflect the tasks of a specific role.

    Clicking a tab displays all subsequent levels of content, including additional roles and folders that are assigned to you, in a tree structure in the Detailed Navigation area of the navigation panel.

  • A first level of tabs and a second level of subtabs

    • Clicking a tab displays its subtabs.

    • If hovering is enabled in your portal, then pointing to a first level tab displays its subtabs. Note that a portal that has its Accessibility flag turned on has its hover feature disabled.

    • The subtab folders compartmentalize the role into manageable tasks. Folder contents can include other folders, pages, and iViews.

    • Clicking a subtab:

      • Displays the next levels of content folders in the Detailed Navigation iView.

      • Launches a service or page that provides relevant content, if there is no third level of content.

Note Note

Your portal can also be configured with no top-level navigation. In such a case, all your content is displayed in the Detailed Navigation iView.

End of the note.

Procedure

Depending on your portal settings, you can arrange the tabs in top-level navigation according to your needs using drag and drop. To return the order of top-level navigation tabs to their original order, choose   Personalize   Reset Order of Tabs  .

If you have a large number of tabs in top-level navigation, you can scroll through the tabs using the provided scrolling arrows. If your portal administrator has defined tabsets, you can choose a tabset from the   View   Tabsets   menu to view a subset of your tabs. Choose All to view all of your tabs.
