Here's a description how to add a new panel to the admin interface:
laravel-package-f18/admin-dashboard-add ... html#p6043

The entries in the navigation bar and their order is determined by this configuration file (which you can overwrite in your own project specific extension):
https://github.com/aimeos/ai-admin-jqad ... navbar.php

Permissions for your new panel is configured here resp. also overwrite this in your own extension:
https://github.com/aimeos/ai-admin-jqad ... source.php

Hi thanks for your response,

Im working with version 2018.4 for laravel, and I didn't find the navbar.php file. However I changed ext/ai-admin-jqadm/admin/jqadm/config/admin.php -> navbar array and it worked, but when I revert this file and try this change from my custom ext it does not work... I've tried adding a copy of admin.php in ext/mycustomext/admin/jqadm/config/admin.php and in ext/mycustomext/config/admin.php and for the first location it does not change anything on the dasboard. However in in the second location the my custom item is added but at the end of the admin/sidebar.

Which is the correct place to put this array?

Thank you very much for your help.

You need to replace the whole navbar array to get your desired order and this can only be done in the configuration files of your application (./config/shop.php for Laravel) or via TypoScript for TYPO3.
