What you want is typical of what sites do all the time - tailor make a
menu for a function.
Typical process is create a menu option, add the appropriate options to
it and assign that menu option ot a user.
The difficult task is finding the menu amongst the thousands distributed
with VistA.
Here is a simple example for the Clerk. We create a menu that include
Register a Patient, Appointment Menu, and Admit a Patient. Having
created this, you may have a super clerk. You can create another new
menu that includes this basic clerk menu PLUS other options.

Subject: [Hardhats-members] Login to Core Applications
I know that this is easy, but I'm still working on understanding the
menu setup for users. Right now, I have been able to get VistA accepted
as SSH only (no CPRS). I also got it past the security issues. There
is a single SSH username/pass for the entire clinical group and a user
for each person in the group. The users click on the VistA icon which
starts up the SSH program and logs in automatically, taking them right
to the ACCESS CODE prompt. They log in and get:
Core Applications
Device Management
Menu Management
Programmer Options
Operations Management
Spool Management
System Security
Taskman Management
User Management
FM VA FileMan
HL7 Main Menu
Manage Mailman
They type Core Applications to get to a prompt that lets them do the
common work of admitting patients, entering vitals, writing
prescriptions, and so on. I would like that Core Applications menu to
be the first menu they see. Also, I would like to customize it for each
role. For instance, a clerk would see:
Enter a Patient
Schedule a Patient
View Schedule
Then, a nurse would see
Enter Vitals
View Vitals
Enter Lab Data
A provider would see
Enter Vitals
View Vitals
Order Lab
Enter Lab Data
Enter Prescription
View Prescriptions
Those are just examples. But, I think it explains what I'm being asked
to do. It is coming from a Unix/Windows Server point of view. The
users are in groups or roles. The groups/roles decide what menu items
they can see. When they log in, they get the primary menu for their
group/role.
