Web Client

Filtering Menu Items

 

To filter a menu item, you extend its selection name with one or more keys corresponding to Agile e6 clients. The client keys are shown in the following table.

Client Key
Java Client J
Web Client H
Note: Keys -W and -U are no longer used.
 

What to do:

Log into the Agile e6 Java Client as a user who has sufficient access rights to modify EDBKERNEL records.

Click to open the Selection Data form.

In the Selection Name field, add and remove keys to filter the menu item for one or more clients, using the following syntax:

 

<selection name>-{<key>}

 

The following table uses the selection name for the menu item Classification > Attribute Pool (EDB-GTM-OPEN) to show examples of how key extensions affect its display in Agile e6 client menus.

Menu Item Selection Name Clients that Display the Menu Item
EDB-GTM-OPEN All clients
EDB-GTM-OPEN-{J} Java Client only
EDB-GTM-OPEN-{H} Web Client only
EDB-GTM-OPEN-{JH} Java Client and Web Client (same as EDB-GTM-OPEN)

Make sure that the Userexit xedb_prm is used as a Pre-Mask-Userexit to validate the menu selection at the mask with the keys -J and -H correctly.

To add separators to menus of all kinds—including top menus, pop-up menus, button areas, and toolbars—use the predefined menu selection EDB-BAS-LINE. Do not use the @LINE userexit to define your own selections, because the Web Client does not support this.

For more information on using the Selection Data form to create and manage menu items and buttons, refer to the Agile e6 Online Help Customizing Agile e6 > DataView.
