Remarks
The application areas in Microsoft Dynamics CRM include Workplace, Sales, Marketing, Customer Service, Settings and Help. New areas can be added or existing Areas can be removed. However, removing the Settings area isn’t recommended. Instead, use privileges to control access to Settings.
The Navigation Pane will not display Area elements without visible SubArea elements. SubArea elements may be hidden from users based on security privileges. If all the SubArea elements in an area are hidden, or none are defined, the area won’t display.
