Adding pages to the navigation

Add the Approval process pages to the navigation list for the application. The pages are defined to support your Approval process workflow. You should implement equivalent pages and assignments for Financial Consolidation as there are in Budgeting. The Financial Consolidation views apply to a different Version dimension, such as Actual. The Financial Consolidation application must use different view names from the Budgeting application.

You do not need to specify http://<Server:Port>. By specifying a relative URL path, the web part prefixes it with the value stored in the CPM Workstation Configuration page field for Decision Server URL.

  1. Open the Navigation Administration page.
  2. Click the Design Navigation tab.
  3. Right-click a folder or an existing page and select Add Page. You can add the page as a child or as a sibling.
  4. Specify the name for the page in the Default Name box.
  5. Specify the URL for the page.
  6. Browse to the image to use for the thumbnail view.
  7. Browse to the image to use in the preview window.
  8. Select the groups that should have access to the page. Select the Inherited check box if you want the page to inherit permissions from its parent so you do not need to set individual permission on the page.
  9. Click Create.
