Buttons that no longer exist

These labels are present in the software's translation files but nothing opens them in 3.5.3 — no command is bound to any of them anywhere in the application. If you are following older documentation, this is why you cannot find them.

Old button	Where the feature lives now
Program manager	System manager → System programs
Heat cool program manager	System manager → System programs / Heat/Cool areas
Alarm manager	Group manager — create a group of type Alarm
Message manager	Communication centrum
Periodic action manager	System manager → System programs → Periodical
User manager	Persons manager
Connect function block	Inside the Function block manager
