My Scheduled Menu Items Maintenance

Individual User Access privileges may be set up for each application. As well, each user can select individual menu items to be scheduled for processing or to be identified as a Favorite. The application menu program automatically displays scheduled and favorite menu items as Push Buttons on designated Tabbed Pages. There is a separate tab displaying those items [Scheduled for Today], [Overdue Functions], [Coming Due] and [My Favorites].

Scheduled items may also be marked as Reoccurring. You can mark these items as Hourly (8-5), Daily (Mon-Fri), Every Day, Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly and Annual. After these functions are executed, the system will offer a screen from which the operator can reschedule the item.

Access properties are maintained using a tree display. Each node in the first level of the tree represents each of the top level menu items found on the application's screen, and the second level of the tree is for each individual function.

Key Benefits

  • Menu functions that are to be executed on a monthly or annual basis can be scheduled thus providing a "tickler" to the operator
  • Using a Tree Structure provides a visual display for the menu items making it easy for selection
  • By build the Application's menu and the User Access Tree structure from the same table, adding new menu items is a simple task

Key Features

  • A Windows Tree Structure is used to maintain the scheduling properties of each menu's functions
  • Menu Item can be scheduled for a particular time of day for a given date
  • Menu Items can be marked to be reoccurring
  • The Tree structure of menu items is built based on the same tables that are used to build the application's menu bar entries
