Hi

You may check for the property menufor described here :

Defining New Action Model

focus on the "menufor" keyword this point.

Just be aware of the article : CS312920 if this not work, a pre-validation is required.

Sample Code

The following is sample code for an action model that configures a subtype:

<model name="sample change request actions" menufor="WCTYPE|
wt.change2.WTChangeRequest2|org.default.www.SampleChangeRequest">
<action name="view" type="object"/>
<action name="SETLIFECYCLESTATE" type="pdmObject"/>
<action name="createSubscription" type="subscription"/>
<action name="separator" type="separator"/>
<action name="reviseChangeItems" type="change"/>
<action name="editCapabilityPackage" type="capabilityPackage"/>
<action name="create" type="approach" />
<action name="create" type="capabilityImplementationProject" />
<action name="separator" type="separator"/>
<action name="sandboxAddToProject" type="object"/>
<action name="SBAddToPrj" type="sandbox"/>
<action name="removeShare" type="object"/>
<action name="separator" type="separator"/>
<action name="ManageSecurity" type="accessPermission"/>
<action name="renameObjectWizard" type="object"/>
<action name="delete" type="object"/>
<action name="separator" type="separator"/>
<action name="separator" type="separator"/>
<action name="discuss" type="forum"/>
<action name="copy" type="object"/>
</model>

You need to implement your own custom validator or filter.
