You need to execute 3 queries (the menu item, screen and access) . In order to see the menu you have to delete the session once, because the menu is stored in it.

INSERT INTO `ohrm_menu_item` (`id`, `menu_title`, `screen_id`, `parent_id`, `level`,      `order_hint`, `url_extras`, `status`) 
VALUES (NULL, 'My Menu', '103', '68', '2', '600', '/mode/new', '1');

INSERT INTO `ohrm_screen` (`name`, `module_id`, `action_url`) 
VALUES ('My new menu', '9', 'action url');

INSERT INTO `ohrm_user_role_screen` (`user_role_id`, `screen_id`, `can_read`, `can_create`, `can_update`, `can_delete`) 
VALUES ('1', '103', '1', '1', '1', '1');

The trick to achieving this is in adding to the OrangeHRM database.

The following MySQL query will create a menu item under the PIM menu (at the start).

INSERT INTO `orangehrm_mysql`.`ohrm_menu_item` (`id`, `menu_title`, `screen_id`, `parent_id`, `level`, `order_hint`, `url_extras`, `status`) VALUES (NULL, 'Name of Menu Item', '75', '30', '3', '100', NULL, '1');

'menu_title' will be the name of your menu item as displayed to the user.

I suggest you to compare the screen_ids of other records in the same table, to get your desired 'landing page'. For example, the screen_id '46' will take you to the 'My Info' page. Note that this menu item will redirect to the PIM module, because its screen_id is '75'.

The 'parent_id' will tell OrangeHRM which main menu item to fall under (become a child of).

I believe that 'level' refers to the user level this menu item will be visible to. You can find out more from the records in the 'ohrm_user_role' table.

Play around with 'order_hint' to get it to appear where you want it to. I found out that the greater its value, the more the menu will be positioned to the right.

If you intend to redirect the user to a page of your own within the OrangeHRM site, you will have to create your own module and make several other database edits.

Good Luck!
