I am new to OpenERP. I need to disable some menus without uninstalling the modules that added the menus. I tried did a search for the module I wanted to disable its menu and then deleted all the search results only to get a very disorganized menu as a result. Please how do I achieve this? I just need to hide the link to two modules on the menu bar and on the home page
Create a new security group called 'Nobody' with no users in it.
Change the permission of the menus you want to hide to this group.
This is easy and you can get the menu back easily too if you change your mind.
If you delete a parent menu, then all its children appear at the top level. You can either delete all the children as well, or just remove security access from the parent menus for all but the administrator group. You might also be able to inactivate the parent menu instead of deleting it if you don't want to mess around with security.
check the below link.In this link is example of hide the UOM into the Product.
if We don’t want to display Unit Of Measure in Product Configuration.

Easiest way is to edit the group:
Settings > Users > Groups, select a group, select second tab (Security), add/remove menu items on Access Menu.
To disable menus it right to go with ir.menu model.
Setting -> technical -> views -> menu
or
some easy example

In my eclipse plugin I have specified my custom navigator using the CNF (Common Navigator Framework). I got everything working except the context menu.
I have created a new viewer-extension for it in which I define a popup-Menu with the respective groups (I overtook all of the groups from the project explorer) and it does get displayed and everything I want to appear in it, does appear.
However there are a bunch of things that appear in it that I don't want to appear.
As an example there is the Run As... option in the context menu which I don't want as I have nothing to run anyway. I tried using the Plugin-Menu-Spy in order to find where this menuItem is being contributed but it won't give me any information about it.
I found out that when setting allowsPlatformContributions = false in my popUp-Extension the unwanted menuItems disappear but so do the Import and Export menus which I do want to have.
So how can I remove the Run As... menuItem from my navigator's context menu? Is there some kind of filter I can apply to it?
I dont want the functionality of a security group in openerp. For example I want to remove the group "Properties on Lines" and its functionality. I know we can uncheck it from users/access rights or from the settings/ configuration. I dont want to list it anywhere in openerp. Is it possible and how?
yes, it is possible. just delete the group, but beware the side effects, because it could have been used in some views and when it is deleted, the view wouldn't find it anymore and you will maybe get some errors.
I don't want the HR Guys to see anything but the submenu Users within the main menu settings.
Therefor I removed "500 - Settings" in the group "Administration / Access Rights" and added "4 - Settings / Users".
It seems that I misunderstood something, because the tap "Settings" disappears completely.
Could anybody give me a hand with this? Do i need to add some user rights? Is there even a possibility to do that via Groups and Menu Items?
Greetings,

create a new group, specify this group to the settings menu and users menu along with their default groups.Then provide this group to your "HR Guys"
Ok,
The way to "hidde" the other menus is to seperate the users menu from the settings as technical user in Settings -> User Interface -> Menu Items.
Afterwards connect the new users main menu with the groups which need accses to the users menu.
Important: dont forget to give the access rights so they can manipulate data

I want to add a new module to the top bar menu at openerp.
I don't know what exactly the name is, but it placed at the top of the openerp (next to the people who login). By default, the top bar menu contains Messaging, Sales, Project, Knowledge, Reporting, Settings.
I want to add my new module to that menu bar. Can I? And how can?

You have to do nothing to define new menu on top, just define your menu item and do not give any parent of this menu, and define at least on child below this menu,
Hope this help
I created a new custom module Customer.
It is currently shown as a shortcut in ALL sections on the main page.
I want users to be able to select Customer when they mouse over the Sales shortcut (to show Customer next to Accounts, Contacts, Opportunities).
How do I add it?
Thank you
You can add modules to different menu groups from the page Administration > Configure Module Menu Filters. It will be in the section Developer Tools on the Administration page.
