The navigation bar on the left side displays the most frequently used Xentral features by default, allowing you to move quickly through the software. However, not every user needs the same functions – for example, a warehouse employee rarely requires direct access to accounting modules.
That’s why you can easily customize the navigation bar to match your personal workflows.
With this feature, you can:
Add or remove modules and apps from the navigation
Rearrange menu items via drag & drop
Use a consistent navigation across all devices and browsers
Where to find the setting: My Account > Account Settings > Navigation Bar Configuration
Configure navigation bar
The configuration menu shows you most of the available apps in Xentral. They are categorized in six categories: Sell, Stock, Buy, Accounting, Team, and Analytics. The apps are bound to these categories, i.e. you can’t move an Analytics app into the Sell category.
You have the following options to configure the navigation bar:
Adding or removing apps: Select an app to display it in the navigation bar, deselecting an app will remove it. If you remove all apps from a category, the category will not be displayed in the navigation bar anymore.
Rearranging categories and apps: You can rearrange your categories and apps into an order of your liking by dragging them at this spot
and dropping them at your desired location.
When you have finished configuring your navigation, scroll down to the bottom of the page and click Save on the right side. A green confirmation message appears. The changes will take effect as soon as you refresh your browser.
You can restore the default navigation bar at any point by clicking Reset to defaults on the bottom left and then clicking Save.

The changes to the navigation bar can be seen on the left side.
