Menu
Users need a way to access the the different screens and workflows from the client application. To allow this, you must define a menu. The menu is a list of functions and sub-menus that will be displayed in the client application.
Create one Menu per solution. To create menu items, add these under the Menu element.

Each menu item has the following attributes:
