ACC Best Practice Part 8 – Build Settings

Issue:

Custom settings are not available in the Settings for the available products for the Build.

Causes:

There are multiple settings for the build; however, they are not clearly visible in the User Interface (UI).

Solution:

The settings in the Build Product control the Project information.                         

Each module under Build settings can be accessed through the Settings link. 

However, not all modules have settings. Here is a list of modules that do have settings:  

  • Sheets Settings:
