Administrators can create a Top Frame Tab containing one or more secondary tabs. The name appears as the top-level tab and the secondary tabs appear when activated. Tabs can be reordered on the Tabs page using the drag-and-drop function. The appearance of tabs can be previewed by role or by selecting a user. Use this option to preview the layout of tabs for users with multiple institution roles.
A Top Frame Tab appears to users only when it contains at least one tab that is available to users. To learn more about setting tab availability, see Setting Tab Properties.
