Create FAR Quicklinks Tool

The Quicklinks button allows users to have quick and easy access to the screens they use often, similar to bookmarking a website on their web browser. For example, if there is a report that is used on a regular basis, and it contains complex filters, the user might want to create a Quicklink to that report so it can be accessed quickly. Each user can create their own Quicklinks, which can be shared with other users if they choose.
