The Specification panel is used for defining menu groups and menu items that will have a promotion type assigned to them.
The Specification panel displays a tree menu list with the root element Entire menu. Menu items and groups are presented with icons, which depend on the statuses Included, Excluded, Added, Deleted. Status indicates promotion type application mode for menu item or group.
The status assigned to a menu group is inherited by all child groups and items that do not have the Excluded status.
Data grid column:
Name – the name of menu group or menu item.
Context menu commands:
(F8) – including menu items and groups in the promotion type.
(F7) – excluding menu items and groups from the promotion type.
(F9) – canceling the assigned status of menu items and groups.
(Ctrl+P) – generates print layouts.
– menu with the commands to manage summary functions of the data grid.
– menu with the commands to operate the data grid.
When being included or excluded from the promotion type, menu items and groups change their status; their icons change accordingly.
By using the command you can add menu items or groups to this promotion type.
Menu items or groups directly included into a promotion type receive the status Included.
Menu item or group included into the promotion type through specification of their parent menu group receives the status Added.
To exclude menu items and groups from this promotion type please select the Exclude command.
After that the specified menu item or group receives the status Excluded.
If a menu item or a menu group is excluded from the promotion type through specification of their parent menu group, they are assigned the status Deleted.
In order to cancel the assigned status please use the command. The selected menu item or group is deleted from this promotion type.
The command is available when you select one item or one group with a previously changed status or alternatively when you select several items and groups with the same status.
If you select several menu items or groups with different statuses simultaneously, the command will be unavailable.
The command is also unavailable for menu items and groups that were included in the promotion type through their parent group. The status of these subelements can only be canceled by canceling the status of their parent menu group.
At the same time, the selected menu items and groups are unmarked:
