Promoting Menus

Applicable for Mobile WMS app version 1.5.0.1 or newer

For every menu item you have in the context menu you have the possibility to move a few of the them to the sub part of the screen. This can be very useful if you often have to use the menu to do something, meaning you can perform that task faster.

Here is an example:

This is the receive order lines, and we have the context menu in the bottom right corner. Once you have clicked the context menu, you get the various actions available.

Lets make the first three menu's available on the page.

First we need to configure our application.cfg file. You can read more about that here: Configure Application.cfg

We navigate to the page called "ReceiveLines" and add this to the page.

<menu numberOfPromotedItems="3"/>

Below here the line has been added.

Once the application.cfg file is saved, we need to update it on the device.

There are specific ways to do that, and as a rule of thumb this should be done by Tasklet Factory. This ensures correct roll out to all devices and a historic log of what has been changed in any case of issues and roll back is needed.

The result of promoting 3 menu's from the context menu. Now it is even more easy to use these menu's.
