Seeker uses a Menu structure that uses a nested hierarchy for menu item with a menu bar at the top of the screen. The levels are optional and are dependent on the user’s access permissions. The single database and menu framework approach is consistent.
Menu configuration can be performed by local self-service using non-technical tools.
The menu configuration for user classes is easily and simply achieved by use of a drag and drop facility on the menu configuration screen provided within the Core Setup module. - Accessibility standards

Customisation is possible for :
1) System user roles (who can do what in the system, via menu and module permissions) - by local administration of user classes
2) System user view (what data levels a user can see, via access security permissions) - (self-service)
3) Customisation is possible by local system administrators using non-technical configuration controls (self-service)
4) Module and function deployment is customisable by user access permissions - by local administration of user classes
5) Self-service user permissions also allow for both location and organisation permissions
6) In addition to local administration, the system is customisable (e.g. suppression of fields and functions from a common set of provision) during initial setup by Invigilatis employing a user specification.
Regarding self-service, configuration of the user interface/menu structure/user setup permissions is by local self-service by authorised users, using non-technical tools. Self-service is also performed for user classes and user definable Dashboards
Configuration is performed by a locally defined user class - user classes are set up with a drag/drop tool that defines which user class can see which menu/menu item.
