While I am writing a new class to show users how to customize their MAS 90 and MAS 200 user interface, I am reminded of other customization tools, including a Menu Maintenance utility that allows users to maintain menu items inside each module by sorting and renaming different tasks.

This utility won’t be included in the new class because it makes global changes, they affect all users, but the steps are truly simple. First, select File then Run from the toolbar. In the Run Program window, type SY_MENU_UI and click OK.

Use the + and – to expand the menus.

Double-click the menu item to change the name. In this example, I have changed Customer Maintenance to Client Maintenance. We have tried to make the distinction before.

Your changes will show in both the Detail and Tree Views.

It’s a nice utility, but remember to use it wisely: any changes you make will apply to all users.
