Add existing page to MS in extension

idonav

Currently working on an extension where I need to make a couple of standard pages available in the menu suite. (516 - Sales Lines, for example).

As far as I know, working with MS are not supported.

So that would leave me with the option to create a page extension and make it searchable this way. But it doesn't make ANY sense to waste X amount of objects just to make it searchable, no other changes are required.

Any suggestions?

Well you can make the page extension i a Object range outsite the customer licens area, they do not need to pay for page extension object, but you are right, you need to "waste" the object number(s).

Hi Idonav,
The only thing I can suggest is creating your own page.

On GitHub I found that it is set as a suggestion to allow UsageCategory And ApplicationAre to be set in page extension to Microsoft:

Ah yes, forgot about that. Since it's free it will have to do for now! Thanks!

Hm actually it did not work, I can't set the below:

UsageCategory = Administration;
ApplicationArea = All;

Causes an error "The property can not be customised".

Any other suggestions?
