Custom Help Link

A Custom Help Link is used to add a custom link to an external help page from a page in the application. For example, the custom help link widget can be used to link to a page contained in your organization's intranet or to a page located in the Internet.

Adding the Custom Help Link widget to a view

You can add a custom help link to any custom view or custom workflow that your organization wants to add to Serena Agile Planner. A custom help link must be configured to point to a URL that is accessible by a user, either a fully-qualified URL for a page that is on the Internet or an internal URL for a page that is within your organization's intranet.
