Actions Menu & Data Movement

The Actions (⚙) menu is where data leaves the system: export, print, duplicate, archive, and the record type’s own server actions. Actions Menu & Data Movement decides which of those a role may use.

Configure it on the role under UI Control ‣ Hide Buttons & Options, on the line for the record type. Each option also exists as a global switch under Block Everywhere.

Actions menu and data movement configuration

Hide Export

Removes the Export option from the Actions menu.

Export hidden

Important

The export itself is refused as well, not only the menu item — a user cannot obtain the file by sending the export request another way.

Hide Import

Removes the Import option and refuses imports on the record type, including imports triggered outside the interface.

Import hidden

Hide Duplicate

Removes the Duplicate option and refuses record duplication. Use it where copies would create confusion, such as posted invoices or confirmed orders.

Duplicate hidden

Hide Archive / Unarchive

Prevents users from archiving or unarchiving records. Both Archive and Unarchive options are removed, and archiving is also blocked through other methods. This ensures the role cannot hide records from other users.

Archive hidden

Hide Insert in Spreadsheet

Removes the Insert in Spreadsheet option, which would otherwise copy the data into a spreadsheet outside the record’s own access rules.

Insert in spreadsheet hidden

Hide Add Properties

Removes the Add Properties / Edit Properties option, so users cannot add custom property fields to the record type.

Add properties hidden

Hide the entire Print menu

Removes the whole Print menu for the record type, whatever reports it contains.

Print menu hidden

Hide specific reports

Removes only the selected reports from the Print menu, leaving the rest available.

Hidden reports

Use it where one document is sensitive — a cost breakdown or a margin report — while the ordinary customer documents stay available.

Hide specific Actions menu items

Removes the selected entries from the record type’s Actions menu, including server actions and wizards bound to it.

Tip

Only the entries that would really appear on the current screen are offered, so you configure what the user actually sees rather than a generic list.
