Just make the menu item a "Link - URL" and type the full link to the subdomain you want to link to.

Any advice?

I've just come across this problem, too.

domain = http://mydomain.com

subdomain = http://sub.mydomain.com

url in menu item: http://sub.mydomain.com

link which appears in menu: http://mydomain.com/sub.mydomain.com

This sounds like a bug to me!

I'm having an issue creating a menu item in subdomain to another page within the same subdomain via the external linking method.

Specifically, tasks within the URL seem to not be working.

Same problem here, you have the option to do it in a wrapper, but since mine is a forum the screen is too small for that, so its not a solution for me.

Ill keep searching..............but I guess there should me component to install
