If the site does not have an admin/adminmenu.xml file, create it with the following content:

<AdminMenu>
    <MenuItem name="Admin Home" cmd="AdmHome" display="true">
        <Module name="Trade Applications For Approval" template="SingleMetric" jsonURL="/ewapi/Cms.Admin/QueryValue?query=TradeApplications" url="/?ewCmd=ListUsers&amp;parid=2902"/>
    </MenuItem>
</AdminMenu>

• Dashboard Box Name:
  The string "Trade Applications For Approval" is the name of the box that will appear on the dashboard.

• Configuration Setting:
  The term "TradeApplications" refers to a setting in protean.cms.config that contains the name of a stored procedure. For security reasons, we do not pass the name of the stored procedure directly.

• Stored Procedure Functionality:
  The stored procedure should return a single value. Below is an example stored procedure that returns the number of users in a group with an ID of 2902:

CREATE PROCEDURE spTradeApplications 
AS
BEGIN
    SET NOCOUNT ON;
    SELECT COUNT(nDirParentId) FROM tblDirectoryRelation WHERE nDirParentId = 2902
END
GO

The URL in the MenuItem provides a direct shortcut to the relevant page within the CMS:

• URL Format:
  /?ewCmd=ListUsers&parid=2902

This URL points to the user listing page associated with the group ID.
