7. Click on Create a New Expense Claim button on the Dashboard, fill up the necessary details and click Continue Next Screen.

9. Head back to the Design App and open up the Expenses Claims Apps under Userview column. 
   
   
10. In Userview Builder and take a look at the properties of Setup Category. Note that the <a> href attribute used in Custom HTML element was using the CustomID to specify the page the link goes to. (see Figure 3)
