When you create a page in Enterprise Portal, you will add it to the navigation to enable users to access it. This walkthrough demonstrates how to add the Tutorial_MessagePrompt page to the Quick Launch navigation for the Sales module site in Enterprise Portal. It illustrates the following tasks:
1. Creating a Web Menu Item
2. Modifying the Quick Launch Menu
3. Viewing the Page in Enterprise Portal
Prerequisites to complete this walkthrough: 1. Microsoft Dynamics AX 2. Enterprise Portal
#1: Creating a Web Menu Item
A web menu item points to a specific page in Enterprise Portal. You must create a web menu item for each page that you will be adding to the navigation.
To create a web menu item:
1. In the AOT, expand the Web node, and then expand the Web Menu Items node.
2. Right-click URLs, and then click New URL.
3. Right-click the new URL that you created in step 2, and then click Properties.
4. Set the Name property to Tutorial_MessagePrompt Prompt.
5. Set the Label property to Message Prompt Tutorial.
6. Specify the URL property, which has the following form: Module/Enterprise%20Portal/PageName.aspx. The Tutorial_MessagePrompt page is found in the main Enterprise Portal site, so it does not have a Module in its path. The value you must enter for the URL property to access the Tutorial_MessagePrompt page is: http://<<server>>/sites/DynamicsAx/Enterprise%20Portal/Tutorial_MessagePrompt.aspx
7. Right-click the new URL item, and then click Save.
#2: Modifying the Quick Launch Menu
To add menu items to the Quick Launch area for a module site, you must first determine which web menu resource is being used for the Quick Launch.

2. Right-click the Sales node, and then click Properties.

4. In the AOT, expand the Web node, and then expand the Web Menus node.
5. Locate and expand the EPSalesQuickLaunch node.
Right-click the Common node. Click New, and then click Menu item. A new menu item will be added at the end of the list.
6. Right-click the node for the new menu item, and then click Properties.
7. Use the drop-down list for the MenuItemName property to select the Tutorial_MessagePrompt menu item you created in the previous procedure.
8. In the AOT, right-click the EPSalesQuickLaunch Web menu, and then click Save.
#3: Viewing the Page in Enterprise Portal
