Navigation lets you tidy the menu for everyone in your lab: turn off sections you never use and move the ones you use most to the top. Names stay exactly as they are — you change only what shows and in what order.

​
What this tab controls

Some entries are locked and show Always shown: Lab Station. They are where people land, so they cannot be turned off.

​
Set it up

1

Open the tab

Go to Settings, then Team, then Navigation.
2

Turn off what you do not use

Switch a section off. To hide just one page, switch off that page under its section.
3

Put the busiest sections first

Use Up and Down beside a section. Check the Menu preview as you go.
4

Save

Select Save. The sidebar and the phone menu update straight away for you, and for everyone else the next time their page loads.

​
What changes once you save

  • Everyone in the lab sees the same menu. This is a lab-wide choice, not a personal one.
  • Hidden means hidden from the menu only. A section you turn off can still be opened from a link or a bookmark, so nobody loses work they have open or a link someone sent them.
  • Who may open what is unchanged. Each role still lands where it did, and access rules are not touched.
  • Names do not change. You cannot rename sections here.
  • Get Started appears at the top while your setup is incomplete, whatever you choose.
  • Settings and the Audit Log are never affected.

​
Check it worked

Look at the sidebar: the sections you turned off are gone and the rest follow your order. On a phone, open the menu and compare. Open a section you hid by its link — it still opens.

​
Common issues

Only the lab owner or a manager sees Navigation. Ask one of them to make the change.
That is by design. Turning a section off hides it from the menu; it does not block the page. To stop someone opening a page, use their access settings instead.
A section with nothing under it would be an empty row, so it is left out. Turn one page back on to bring it back.
Either the entry is locked (Always shown).
You have not changed anything yet, or your role cannot change the menu.
