 Summary

Menu screens are the most common navigation mechanism for screen applications.  In the System i / iSeries / AS400 host environment, they are frequently combined with a command line, which merges the menu function with that of the Clear screen.

 Roles

HostProvides hierarchical navigation to application functions.
 
Security restrictions can also be implemented with menus:  based on the user's profile, menu options can be omitted when they represent functions not available to the signed-on user.
 
WSMost menu systems create clean navigation and menu screens generally do not need to be accounted for in web service definition.  If a menu is dynamic, with options appearing and disappearing based on user security profiles, then special navigation consideration is needed.
