Windows used to manage commands in the user menu:

You can open the Favourite editor window by using the Edit command from the Favourites menu. This allows you to modify attributes of a user menu command.

The Properties panel is composed of the following fields:

  • Group indicates the group that contains the command from the user menu.

    You can select a group in the Select Favourites group window.

  • Name is the name of the command in the user menu. This is a required field.

    The name of the object is used by default, e.g. Stock adjustment records or Division.

  • Index denotes the sequence order in which commands are placed in the group. This is a required field.

  • Shortcut designates the combination of keys that can be used instead of the Favourites menu command to open a window.

    You can select a shortcut option from the drop-down list. The selected value appears in the Favourites menu.
