Menus within Calpendo are completely customisable and by default are assigned to users the very first time they log in to the system based on their assigned Roles.  Therefore an Admin user will see a different menu to a standard User.


A large number of customers would like different menu options to be available to different users, for example to provide specific reporting options to principal investigators or to the managers of various pieces of equipment. This can be achieved through a workflow which runs when a user logs in to Calpendo.  It can use any combination of the user's roles, type or user groups to assign a suitable menu.  This also has the advantage that a change to the user's credentials will be picked up when they next log in and the updated menu automatically assigned.
