We’re updating the Navigation Bar in the Celonis EMS

Hey Celopeers,

You know how fast the world turns at Celonis — you’re the ones making it happen! 

So after speaking with you, our customers, and our communities, we have decided to implement some changes to the Execution Management System user interface. These will be published and available between the 9.-10 of March.

We are making these changes to ensure the EMS is as efficient and intuitive as possible for users like you.

Here’s what’s changing.

• Easier access: The Navigation Bar has moved from the top of the screen to the left side
• More intuitive taxonomy: Some services linked from the NavBar have been renamed and regrouped

Watch a video walkthrough of these changes here:

New EMS Navigation Bar (celonis.com)

Our Navigation Bar finds its new home 

The first major update is the relocation of the Navigation Bar. Until now users found it at the top of the screen.  

We have now moved the Navigation Bar to the left side of the screen.

Why? Placing the Navigation Bar here allows users to focus more on where they do their work, with the bar no longer obstructing the view.

Note: If you navigate into certain services, you may see that the NavBar is back on the top of the screen. Not all interfaces have been updated with the left-side NavBar yet, but they will be in releases coming shortly.

We have some more in store for the Navigation Bar, and it will continue to evolve, providing features that let you personalize the experience and allow for faster access.

What’s in a name? Redefining the EMS taxonomy

We have introduced a new taxonomy to make it easier for EMS users to find what they need.

Old vs. new taxonomy below: 

Business Views → Apps

EMS Store → Marketplace

Event Collection → Data Integration

Event Collection On-Premise → Data Integration On-Premise

Team Settings → Admin & Settings

N/A → Data*

*Data is a new level one navigation menu item that groups services together.

We have also grouped standalone services (like Team Settings and Switch Teams) and rearranged others to make navigation more user friendly.
