Click to view - Menu Items Fields and Descriptions
| Field Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Menu Name | The name for the menu item. |
| Display Name | The user-facing label text that appears in the Evolution navigation menu, mobile app menu, or Connect portal menu for this custom menu item (e.g., "My Dashboard", "Submit Request", "View My Tasks", "Team Schedule", "Reports Portal"). The Display Name is what end-users see and click to access the linked page or URL, so it should be clear, concise, and action-oriented using terminology familiar to your user community. Can differ from the internal Menu Name for administrative clarity. Supports internationalization for multi-language deployments where different Display Names can be configured per locale. Maximum 50 characters. Use sentence case and avoid technical jargon. This label appears across Evolution desktop, Reach mobile app, and Connect self-service portal depending on the "Available in" checkbox selections. |
