About the Tourplan-NX Menu

The Hamburger Menu

The Tourplan NX menu is the hamburger icon at the top, left of the browser window:

Selections available from the hamburger menu can change, depending on context within the system; i.e. which application is currently running (examples of applications are Financials, FITs, Code Setup etc.).

When first logging-in to Tourplan NX, the Home menu displays, identified by the word "Home" up by the hamburger icon. Making a selection from any menu might go to another menu, or it might go into an application screen. For example, the task Create a Default Currency, requires two menu selections to arrive at the Currency screen:

  1. a selection from the Home menu (Home > System > Code Setup), followed by
  2. a selection from the Code Setup menu (Code Setup > System > Currency).

NOTE: In the user manuals, a series of menu selections such as the above is frequently referred to as Home > System > Code Setup > System > Currency.

In Tourplan-NX the full list of selections available from the Home menu is:

  • Bookings and Quotes.
  • Operations.
  • Financials.
  • Products.
  • Reports.
  • System.

Menu Changes with Selections

The menu can change when an item, such as a supplier or a product, is chosen in the screen. The following examples illustrate the differences.

Menu Breadcrumb Trails

NOTE: Menu breadcrumb trails are used throughout our user manuals when referring to selections made from the left-hand menu. In printable versions (e.g. PDF), only the breadcrumb trails are included - small screenshots are not shown. However, in online versions, the menu breadcrumb trails are expandable, showing both the screenshot and text for each step.
