Menu map: every menu item and where it is explained
The 9bx menu is one sidebar for every module: My space (pages for your kind of work plus every page you star, in your order, with Recent under it) and All modules, where each module opens in place. The grid button (or the M key) shows All of 9bx, every page on one screen. Each module's setup pages are in the gear row at the bottom of the module (for example CRM settings). This page lists every menu item, what its page is for, and the guide that explains it.

How the menu is arranged
- You only see the apps and items your role and plan allow. A missing item is hidden, not broken.
- You never switch module to find an item: every module you can use is in the same sidebar under All modules. Type in Find in menu to narrow the whole menu, hub cards included.
- Each module has at most seven sections, and each section at most seven rows. Rarely used pages sit on a hub: one row (with an arrow) that opens a page of cards for several related pages, for example Attendance in HR. Click the row, then pick the card.
- Every page that was in the menu before is still there, with the same web address, so bookmarks and links in emails keep working.
- Setup pages are for administrators. Agents and employees never see them.
- Each part of the path in the top bar (for example HR / Time & attendance / Leave) opens a list of its neighbours.
- Press Ctrl+K to jump to any page by name, or G then two letters (jump keys). See Layout and navigation.
