Implications
Warning
Editing data in any of these options has implications across the entire system and across various security levels.
Please ensure that all of the implications of any changes or updates are carefully assessed before making those changes.
The System Tab and Editing of Tab options is normally reserved for power users and those with highest level system access, because changes made here have a system wide impact on the functions available from the side menu.
If a Tab is set as hidden for particular security level, all of the pages within that tab are also hidden for all users who have that security level.
