The Custom Admin View simply needs to be placed in the Sub-menu and is independent from any other dataset and then the Sub-menu method can be used. If you want a feature in the main menu, these are all the features that can be set.

These IDs can be selected, and when you click on this combined results, the IDs of the selected items gets passed to the controller. For example: Look in 'Companies',in 'Components' ,in 'Component Builder' in 'Custom Admin Views' in 'Combined results' and then in 'Custom Buttons'.

The implementation of those IDs can be seen in the Data query. Reach into the input object(PHP in Editing the Dynamic get).

If you want to drop that down, pause the video, and copy some of this area. Probably it would be the only part that will be useful for your purpose. Use the 'ids' in your code as it suits you best.[00:11:39](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sPEkbuNXwds&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h11m39s) Keep in mind that this PHP as seen in the code, runs before the 'Get methods'. It basically is a filtering option(see video). The 'getListQuery' starts, then that code that has been written, is entered in here(See video) and then the rest of the code which is build by Component Builder is being done.
