Add a Menu in MES

How are you partners good day,

I want to add a Menu or a button in the MES console, has someone already done it? Or do you know how to do what you can advise me? In the direct options that Epicor has, I can’t find how to add a menu to MES.

Thanks, I look forward to your comments.

@CTapia Have you searched this site for ‘mes customization’? There are a LOT of posts covering this topic and the proper way to deploy the customization (which can be tricky).

Tahnk you very much @afabian

Thank you very much for the information, I did think that development as such was necessary, since for any change in the month it is through programming, I have thought.

I will see the link to understand better.

Thank you very much again

Thank you very much again
