Hi Blake C,
The best way to achieve this goal is by creating a screen with links that would direct the users to different areas of Method CRM that they have access to and which is also important to their function in your company.
For the example that you mentioned above, for the sales area of your organization, I would first add the Label object in the designer screen to organize the information that you would like the user to see on the screen.
When you are editing the properties for this label object, be sure to click on Formatting (click to show) link within Step 1 of 2 of the properties. That will give you access to formatting attributes that you can add to the label.
I would then add new a Button object to the screen. You need to then transform this button into a Link which will open up another screen by selecting the Advanced Options (click to show) link in Step 1 of 3 when editing the properties of the button object and putting in a check mark in the checkbox beside Show button as a link. In Step 2 of 3, you need to make sure that the Go To Tab Link action directs the user to the correct original or customized screen.
I would finally add the Help/Note object which will appear as a link to the user and describe the functionalities of the areas that you are linking to so that the user will have helpful information at his/her disposal.
When you are creating the information to be presented under the link, you have the option of choosing from several icons to represent the information: Help, Help(Blue), Note, and Note(Blue). For the example above, I would either choose Notes or Notes(blue).
I hope that this helps.
