Menu Missing in Epicor but available in Database

Question

I am working with Epicor 10.0.700.4. I could not see few menu items in my Epicor screen, but those menus are available in back-end Database. Is there a way to figure out the inactive menus or the hidden menus in EPICOR or from DB tables. I checked the DoNotDisplayInMenu column in Database, but the menu's i'm searching in Epicor is True in DB.

Please help. Please let me know if more information is required.

Answer 1

The menu may also be hidden because the current user is not set to see it. Check the security settings for the menu item.

Answer 2

It is because the Menu table lists down all the Menu Items in Epicor standard irrespective of Licensing. And currently, there's no flag for the "Licensed" in the Menu table.

Answer 3

Yes. You can query the Ice.Menu table to see all menu objects in the system (via SQL or BAQ). The following criteria will identify screens which you do not see as a security manager but do exist in the system:

1. Ice.Menu "Enabled" is false
2. Ice.Menu "DoNotDisplayInMenu" is true
3. Ice.Menu "Company" is a company to which the user does not have access
4. Ice.Security bound to the menu specifies a company to which the user does not have access
5. Ice.Security bound to the menu specifies a NoEntryList that either contains the user or a security group that contains the user.
6. The menu item requires a module is not licensed.
