Customizing the User Interface

Guardium supports customizing the navigation menu for specific users and roles.

The Customize Navigation Menu and Customize User/Role tools allow you to conveniently change the content and organization of the navigation menu. You can access these tools in several locations:
  • All users can customize their own navigation menu by opening the User menu in the Guardium banner and selecting Customize.
  • Administrative users can customize the navigation menu for other users and roles by opening the User menu and selecting Customize User/Role or by navigating to Setup > Tools and Views > Customize User/Role.
  • Users logged in as accessmgr can customize the navigation menu for other users and roles by navigating to Access > Access Management, selecting Role Browser, and clicking the Customize Navigation Menu link.

The tool provides a consistent customization experience for all users.

The Navigation Menu list reflects the organization and contents of the Guardium navigation system. Select tools and reports from the Available Tools and Reports list and use the Copy icon to add items to the Navigation Menu list. Remove items from the Navigation Menu list by clicking the Delete icon next to an item. Use drag and drop or the icon controls to rearrange items within Navigation Menu list.

It is possible to define a new Guardium home page (that is, the first page seen after logging into the system) by selecting an item from the Navigation Menu list and clicking the Set as home page icon.

After clicking the OK button, the Guardium navigation menu is updated to reflect any changes you made in the Navigation Menu list.

The following limitations apply when using these tools:
  • You cannot delete the My Dashboards group, but you can delete individual dashboards within the group.
  • New groups that are empty will not be saved.
  • Empty groups shown in the Navigation Menu list will not appear in the Guardium navigation menu.
