I have a model that needs editing that is associated with the current user called BillingProfile. How can I add a menu item that links to the edit page of the current user's BillingProfile? I don't want or need an index page for the BillingProfile as a user can only edit their own.
class User
has_one :billing_profile
end

You can use Cancan to manage the ability to allow a User to edit his own Billing Profile.
ability.rb
...
cannot :edit_billing_profile, User do |u|
u.user_id != user.id
end
...
admin/users.rb
ActiveAdmin.register User do
action_item :only => :show do
link_to "Edit BP", edit_bp_path(user.id) if can? :edit_billing_profile, user
end
end
Or you can try something like this:
ActiveAdmin.register User do
form do |f|
f.inputs "User" do
f.input :name
end
f.inputs "Billing Profile" do
f.has_one :billing_profile do |bp|
w.input :address if can? :edit_billing_profile, bp.user
end
end
f.buttons
end
end
I have not test it, but I did something similar on a project.

This may help you-
Adding custom links:
ActiveAdmin.register User, :name_space => :example_namespace do
controller do
private
def current_menu
item = ActiveAdmin::MenuItem.new :label => "Link Name", :url => 'http://google.com'
ActiveAdmin.application.namespaces[:example_namespace].menu.add(item)
ActiveAdmin.application.namespaces[:example_namespace].menu
end
end
end
I basically created a new ActiveAdmin::MenuItem and add it to the current ActiveAdmin menu with the namespace example_namespace and return the menu in the end of the current_menu method. Note: current_menu is a method expected by ActiveAdmin so don't change the name of it. You can add as many items you like and each of these items will be converted to a link on your navigation header. Note this works for ActiveAdmin version > 0.4.3 so you might need to do your own digging if you want to do it for version <= 0.4.3.

I have a LinkHelper defined which has the following two methods:
#This will return an edit link for the specified object instance
def edit_path_for_object_instance(object_instance)
model_name = object_instance.class.to_s.underscore
path = send("edit_#{model_name}_path", object_instance)
end
#This will return an show link for the specified object instance
def show_path_for_object_instance(object_instance)
model_name = object_instance.class.to_s.underscore
path = send("#{model_name}_path", object_instance)
end
You can call the edit_path_for_object_instance method directly from your view and pass in the user.billing_profile object.
This will give you a link directly to the entity resulting a url like /billing_profile/ID/edit
An alternate approach is to use fields_for. This will allow you to create a form for the User attributes and update the associated BillingProfile at the same time. It would look something like this:
<%= form_for @user%>
<%= fields_for @user.billing_profile do |billing_profile_fields| %>
<%= billing_profile_fields.text_field :name %>
<% end %>
<%end%>
