STEP-BY-STEP PROCEDURE FOR CREATING NAVIGATION BAR PROFILE

As many threads were posted on CRM forums asking for some help how to create navigation bar profile.  We decided to list hereafter a couple of basic techniques to do so.

Navigation Bar Profile:  The Navigation Bar profile provides the logical structure to access the internal and external applications within the Web UI. It can be customized as per individual business role.

For Ex: A user with the business role Sales Professional will have different navigation options as compared to a user with the business role Marketing Professional.

  2. 2. Define work center Group links
  3. 3. Define work center
  4. 4. Define direct links groups
  5. 5. Define Navigation Bar profile
  6. 5. Assign logical links to work center links
  7. 6. Assign work center group to work center
  8. 7. Assign work center, direct link groups to Navigation Bar profile
  9. 8. Assign Navigation Bar profile to the Business Role

We can adjust our links by selecting the Adjust work Center Group links and adjust Direct link Groups. If we check mark the visible and In Menu field then  only the links are displayed in the Web Ui Screen.

      I do not agree that this document explains clearly creation of navigation bar profile.

      Many screenshots - good. Bad quality of screenshots (personally, I see some of them corrupted (resized etc.)) - not good. No explanation - not good.
